Hammond Horseshoe NL 1/2
Hero in MP with A
K
and $320 or so. Hero has been at table for 2 hours and is running well. Not a nit image today probably TAG though.
We're playing 7 handed. It's folded to me. I raise to $15.
Button calls 15.
He's a 30 yo Hispanic male. I do not know him. He's been there for about 12 hands. He folded 3 of them. He raised to 15 six times and called the other 3. He seems like a maniac but he's had hands. In 12 hands he's already on his third buy in. However, he lost $200 with a set of 8s vs. flush draw. Then he lost another 200 with trip kings so....He's at $200 or so now.
BB calls $15. Everyone else folds. Solid 40 yo BG and reg. Very sensible player usually.
Pot is $46.

BB checks. I then bet $32 here.
Button calls, BB folds.
Pot $110
TURN J
=Broadway for me.
I bet $85. Too large? what do you think?
He tanks. He hems. He looks around. He grabs his cigarettes, slides his cards and calls. What does he have? AQ? KQ?
RIVER Q
I think of what to do and he says, "Don't worry man. AK is good." He has not said a word previously since he sat down.
Hero????????????
Check? Bet his last 68 bucks into the pot? What's optimal?
I have to say the speech made me think over something that should not be difficult.
