bet more pf, I like 3x the original raise, .90 in this case.

flop bet looks like a blocking bet/weak cbet, bet more or check/call

Pot the turn

river was good.

Hey, that's me!

Your bets are generally way too small.

When you have AK preflop like that you want to put some money in the pot but doing so announces your hand a bit. As such, when you get your monsters, make sure you're getting as much value as possible. All of our bluffs and semibluffing preflop is so that we can jam it with ak, right?
