Why do you check call AJ but bet for for with AK? I'm not trying to be a dick, I'm actually curious as to your thought process.
The way I see it, It's very unlikely opponent has an ace unless you're beat allready by A5 A9 etc. Which imo is the most likely scenario.
Seems very unlikely for opponent to have a flush draw unless he has exactly KQ clubs. We don't have enough info on villain to know if he calls a 3 bet preflop with 34 or 76 suited, and we block all flush draws to the nuts. At this point in the hand, I don't think theres a weaker hand calling on the river, or a stronger hand folding.
Could be slowplaying a set, but I would assume he'd want to protect that on the flop, and even more so on the turn.
Pocket 4's are totally possible given the betting especially if he had the 4 of clubs in his hand.
I just don't see us being ahead in any scenario, so why AK and AQ but not AJ?
