30/60 AK turn/river play
Reads on Villains UTG was loose fairly passive and CO was very loose and pretty aggressive. Trying to figure if I played this correctly

standard imo
Call flop and raise turn?
I think you played it the best way, and pretty standard. The only play to consider more action would be a turn 3 bet but I think thats probably a bit much vs a non maniac.

I definitely don't think more action is warranted at any point without a read. The river really seems like a crying call ... maybe CO has overplayed a chopping AK?
Would you all still 3-bet the flop with AQ here? AJ? If so, are you still paying off the river with these hands? If the game is playing sane (which obviously is not always the case), I don't think you win very often at all. But of course you are getting 17-1 so you don't have to win very often to make this a profitable calldown.
Thanks for the input guys. Based on how he had been playing I think he can show up on the river with AK/AQ and is far more likely than him having what he did (AA) oh well still a good session for my first time playing this high.
Call flop and raise turn?
Are we risking giving a free card to two players in a good sized pot doing this?
Equinox,
how on earth do you cope with the pot sizes playing at this limit, when from your previous post your usual game is $3/6? I could never handle this kind of jump up in limits.
3betting flop and leading turn is standard and the best line imo, if you are behind and want to checkraise the turn youll always get 3 big bets in when behind/drawing to max 3 outs, and occasionally villain might have broadway gutshots and choose to take a free card on the turn. When raised again on the turn anything else than crying calling down is very spewy, id assume a10 is the least villain has here.
