Say you're on the button and have A-K. You raise pre-flop and flop comes 9, 7, 3. Everyone checks to you and you raise again. The turn card is 10 and everyone checks to you. What do you think? How do you play it?

I would bet about 3/4 the pot - and pray that every1 folds

I had a very bad poker night a few weeks ago. We were playing $1/$2 NL HE. There were 2 tables and after a few hours we mixed players between the tables so that we could play with different opponents. We started about 8pm and by 12:30 half players were gone and there were enough players for one table. We played till 2:30am. So, during the night I was playing against a mixture of players: good players and loose callers. And the theme of the night was that I wasn’t getting good flop cards and I don’t think that I handled the situation properly. So, the reason behind the posting is to get your opinion about how do you approach such a situation? I know the case is general but you could say, e.g. if I’m playing with a loose caller I’ll check to get a free card. I want to get different answers, hence the generality of the posting.

Thanks
