Bottom line, this was a murky spot for a slowplayed AK. Raising preflop, or on the flop, would likely have saved you a lot of grief, because my hand would not have been able to stand a big raise.

Glad I was on the sidelines for most of it. That was one hell of a hand. Glad I was on the sidelines for most of it.

i esp luv the “I hit, now the job is to find out where I’m at in this hand’ and u just “call”. loool

I decided as soon as I saw that flop that I was going to c/r allin on the turn on just about any card. I was trying to get all one-pair hands to fold to this pressure, obviously; I didn't expect a call from AK. You made a good read and got your money in ahead. Check my blog for a few sick HHs of my own. I don't expect much sympathy, but I can share some pain too. Stay tuned. For the record, I flopped a double-gutter.
