WTF WITH THE MIN RAISE PF !?!?!?!?!?!?!? AT LEAST .40.....

Does this guy bluff? Can he bluff? Either way, I think I pitch this, too many scare cards out there....

I'm thinking that you were beat on the flop. If not, the turn beat you. There's not much that you can beat. I'm thinking that Villian has a full house. I don't think he has KJ, KT, TT, 99. AK is very unlikely with you holding 2 Aces, of course as unlikely as KQ, but I see a KQ slowplay here. Maybe a lucky AQ, but he'd have to be really bad and think you're really bad and have one of the hands that your Aces up can beat. I don't see AT or AJ either. I doubt either see the turn, but that's just me. I have no reads here.

I don't like your minimum raise PF. It limits the range of hands that you can put Villian on. Yes, you're 4-5:1 PF, but you can lose a lot in that one and get bluffed more easily in 1 or 2 of those 4 or 5 to make a profit without information.

I don't think there's a need to play weird with Aces...you don't get them that often and if you do a big pf raise it's not like they will know you have aces

just play AA as aggressively as you play AK, that way people with small pocket pairs might call you thinking you have AK, so instead of a coinflip, they're screwed...
