    It's a new table with virtually no reads. I'm BB with around $250 in chips.

    Hijack ($175) calls $10
    Button ($300) calls $10
    SB ($300) calls $10
    Hero BB ($250) dealt AcKd raise to $53
    Straddle Folds
    The rest call

    Pot $212
    Flop QcJc 7c

    SB checks

    Hero...?

    Besides Hijack with $125 the rest we assume have around $250. What's my play here.

    Cont bet and call a shove. I played a bunch of 1/3 at Aria last week and was amazed at how often people would call massive three bets pre only to fold on the flop to a standard bet. I feel like they're mucking enough for it to be +EV, but any hand they might jam you have a ton of outs to.

    What makes the hand interesting to me is that I hold the ace of clubs. So most flush draw combinations are hard to find. I don't see anybody with a Kc10c or the like and I would think it's spewy to call 50 or so, given stack sizes, with any low suited connector. The real question is obviously check or shove.

    I did and I thought it was the right play. My table tried to berate me for overvaluing AK and I did second guess myself. I'm not used to live play so I thought I'd get a second opinion

    Best part was I got called by Jd10s, and lost. The guy said he put me on AK and high fived the entire table for a great read. Although clearly I was ahead when the money went in.

    1) very very easy shove with your stack
    2) don't second guess yourself because of what a live stl 1/3 player says
    3) live players ALWAYS know when you have AK, and will gladly and loudly tell you
