I feel your pain. I have no useful advice, but I feel your pain. Can't remember the last time I won more than the blinds with AK in EP. I either get donk shoved into or c/raised huge when I whiff. If I check behind, they shove the turn.

I wouldn't say your hand is face up, no

I'd just say that villian's tend to assume people are c-betting with air
also you probably ran into a hand this time, thats all

your read could've been slightly off - maybe not the guy to cbet

but really, I say nh and just try against next time

standard IMO
