600 NL Hand Critique

[eliteprodigy]

600 NL shorthanded (6 players)
Stack Sizes both around 1100 btw.

Hero: AKo

PF: UTG min-raises to 12, hero re-raises to 35, folds to UTG who calls.

Flop: K 10 3 rainbow. UTG leads for 15, hero re-raises to 75, UTG min-re-raises to 135, hero calls.

Turn: 6 putting 2 diamonds out there. UTG leads for 100, hero calls.

River: Blank. UTG leads for 100, hero calls.
UTG Flips 10 10 for set.

For some reason I had nailed UTG on KQ, no reads, just had sat with him etc. I think i nailed him on KQ in my head cuz it was the only hand he was holding barring AK i could beat. I feel I should have folded in retrospect when he leads on the turn, as I can assume I'm most likly facing a hefy river-bet to call. What yall think?

I don't play this high, of course, but ... fwiw ...

Fold when he re-raises on the flop. I might not actually do it, but I hope I would and it sure seems like the thing to do. You've told him you have TPTK and he's told you he's fine with that. The tiny bet on the flop ($15 into a $70 pot!?) then the minimum re-raise is a powerful betting pattern: it says "Please raise me" and then "Please call me."

Definitely fold the turn if you stuck around that long. The turn bet is also small relative to the pot and clearly says "Please call me." He's not trying to push you off, he's milking. Refuse to be the cow!

I hate to fold to the flop re-raise because it makes me look weak or like I'm bluffing. I play hyper-aggressive and if the other players see me bow down that easily they may try making plays on me. I like to show that I won't be pushed around as it helps me later in hands but I definitly see your point and I think your right, thanks.

His line screams strength and I have a hard time believing he'd re-raise the flop AND lead the turn with KQ. Especially with such a small bet on the turn that looks like it wants a call. I would fold 90% of the time on the turn and if I read him on KQ, I would raise. I hate calling the turn like that where you know you will most likely call another bet on the river. If you want to get to showdown take the limit approach and raise the turn so he checks to you on the river. And you also get folding equity on the turn.
