| I think in a vacuum the hand plays fairly straightforward. The turn bet here basically functions as a value bet where AK is likely the best hand at the moment given the lack of action, and we want to charge for drawing to a river card that could beat us. The limp-along after the big stack's open limp seems either right or wrong depending on info we have on him. If he got that big stack by being tricky/trappy, then limping along seems right since he could very well be slowplaying a big hand. If however he has been more passive and has been seeing a lot of flops by limping in, then I think we raise his open limp all day long. Or, if the table as a whole has been more aggro, then our limp could be fine if we have reason to believe we will be raised light from late position, setting up a possible squeeze play on the open limper and an opportunity to take down a decent pot w/o seeing a flop. | |

| i find this move to be a little risky as assuming you have a tight table id have to assume one of the other players who called would be holding a ten and the second ten would have been a flag for a check raise with a pair on the bored personally i would have checked once more to see the river for an over card then made my bet baised on that play but im tighter and more consirvative then most | |

| i think that a preflop raise is you best option here. The problem with limping is that you let the big bling come along for the ride with a very wide range, therefore making it very hard for us to put him on a range if he starts to show aggresion on the flop. AK is not really a hand i like to slow play trap with because after all on most flops you will just have ace high, and especially the big blind can have anything. As for the utg limp if you raise and he shoves, it polerises his range to qq+ and since we are deep enough we can safely fold and or gamble depending on how we feel at the time. | |
