    there's a few issues going on with your line of thinking in my opinion.
    but to answer your question, call.

    You're a fucking idiot. How is this remotely funny.

    Somewhere in this world, this guy's family and friends are grief stricken and mourning the loss of a son, brother and friend.

    You are pathetic.

    If your experienced enough to put on cards then you have the experience to answer your own question.

    Until you have the experience to place the cards, you should stick to ranges. Makes these decisions easier.

    main thing i wanted to highlight was that you mentioned you wanted to take the pot on the flop. I think betting the flop is fine - but i wanted to highlight the reason for betting.

    i agree nobody wants to be sucked out on (by hands like AK), but the truth is you should be thinking more along the lines of - what types of hands does he have, and what can I bet to extract value from him.

    I'm pretty sure you've won this hand and if you didn't it was a cooler/suck out.

    if he's a loose player, he could have a wide range of 10's (like QT,KT,AT), in which case, he may shove if you cbet a little lighter. He may also have decided to get fancy with 89,56 and may semi-bluff for the pot. He may also decide to put you on AK and shove with a pair of 9's or something like A7 for all i know...

    If he's hit a set or has AA KK - bad luck, you're just going to have to stack off.

    yes hip he had pocket 10s and i lost the pot, thank you for your views
    and some of my thoughts was to force him to back off a bit with his bets
    not to get value although the 1600 was worth getting
