Nothing else you can do under the circumstances. Bet larger @ flop if you want to be more sure about folding turn. Played this way, your hand is pretty much face up, and if villain is good they will exploit this line very easily. If villain is bad then you're beat and it costed you very little to find out.

No, you dont just shove A Q pre. Would mean you have no Ax in your non all in raising range vs limps which would be quite bad. Not exactly rocket science to play A K/A Q/A J/A 10 oop.

Probably better reason is that they call wide.

U played it fine. In some spots u can 2 barell, and even 3barell(if turn was 10 or K, or if u think that he cant call 2 barells wth middle pair), but its ok to check fold turn , as u dont need to win every pot.

I might be wrong, but in this situation i'm not expecting a lot of 5x 4x cards. I would iso him 2-2,5x sure but in this case, the most probable for me is some jx hand with good playability postflop like J7/J9 etc or some suited Jx which isn't scared of hearth on later streets. Anyway since i have no reads its a guess.

Seat 1: Axif (620 in chips)
Seat 2: rimas11111 (380 in chips)
rimas11111: posts small blind 10
Axif: posts big blind 20
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to Axif [Kh Ad]
rimas11111: calls 10
Axif: raises 600 to 620 and is all-in
rimas11111: calls 360 and is all-in
Uncalled bet (240) returned to Axif
*** FLOP *** [Ac 3s 7c]
*** TURN *** [Ac 3s 7c] [2h]
*** RIVER *** [Ac 3s 7c 2h] [4d]
*** SHOW DOWN ***
Axif: shows [Kh Ad] (a pair of Aces)
rimas11111: shows [Ks 5h] (a straight, Ace to Five)

Next hand I open shoved and he called me with K5o again. So I told him: let me guess, what your favourite hand is :P

This is obv just a funny exception and it happens very rarely.
