I put the guy on the king so repped hard on the turn... should I be still betting or checking back the river!?!?

    Well yes, if you genuinely put him on the case K then you're right to check back on the river.

    Not sure why you're trying to ''rep hard'' on the turn, we have the essential nuts.

    Hi can you explain your thoughts behind the min bet on the flop and the 4x overbet on the turn? I don't get it. 
    The river check is totally bizarre, i'm not sure how you can check behind here 100% the wrong decision overtime

    Agreed flop + turn play is bizarre but betting river would be a clear mistake. Our opponent called a 3x overbet OTT on an AAKK board. What do you think his range is for calling that bet? Pretty clear to me it's Ax or Kx. When a 3rd K comes OTR therefore we are now losing to Kx and chopping against Ax (which is villains range) - so what are we getting value from by betting? Nothing.

    When you make a value bet, you always have to think "what hands are calling me that I beat?"

    bet sizing on flop n turn are imo little weird :) I be pretty sure you are never betting that size on turn as bluff on that board so just looks you have the acex hand almost always.

    yeah no point betting river imo like ivan said he either has an ace or king after calling the turn
