$1/$2. Been at the table with Villain for couple of hours and playing solid. Mostly folding pre-flop but got carried away one hand an orbit ago semi-bluffing my flopped draw IP which went to showdown. 98hh OTB and (7TT4Q) board (C-bet and bet large-ish OTR. Got called by 55). Nothing else out of the ordinary. Doubt Villain in this hand paid attention to that hand. Villain is an oldish lady who just lost most of her stack calling down with a draw and bricked. Re bought for full $200 one hand before this one.

Hero gets AK OTB. Two limpers to hero who raises to $18/$180 pre-flop. SB Folds and the Villain lady calls out of the BB. Limper's fold.

Flop $37

957

Lady in BB checks in the dark. Hero evaluates flop. No made hand. Six clean? overs for a draw. Hero checks?

Turn $37

5

Villain checks again. Hero checks again?


River $37

9

Villain checks. Hero checks again?

Appreciate any comments on all streets on what's the general line/plan here?

Don't put your results in your OP. It has a big effect on the answers you get.

The place to start is looking at the villain's range. Think about what better hands you can get to fold vs. what worse hands that can call. That will give you the answers you want.

I probably check back flop to knowing that lady is probably a station and the board is wet. When board pairs and she checks that's when I stab at it most likely but even if she calls I will still feel AKs is best hand a decent portion of time.

Check/Bet about 1/2 pot on river As played. I lean more to just checking.

This. A check back on the flop seems strong to fish. "Oh, he wants me to bet!" Lol. And she checked back for a second time! If she flopped something she'd bet on turn
