Total pot 1680 | Rake 0
Board [5s Js 3c]
Seat 1: joe32543 (big blind) folded on the Flop
Seat 2: cribb23 folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 3: Puma35 folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 4: takechip folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 5: mack1103 folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 6: MURSLEV folded before Flop
Seat 7: PoopshooT958 (button) collected (1680)
Seat 8: BulletTC (small blind) folded before Flop

After the all-in, I put him on JJ or a high pocket pair.

I know the flop bet was WEAK, and was asking to be raised, but how much should I have raised? Half pot, 3/4 pot, the pot? Or check, and call their bet if the odds are there?

you were making a standard continuation bet.........so it needed to be at least 1/2 -3/4 pot.

I tend to go with 1/2 pot.

If my math is correct, you came in at 1/3 pot and were begging for him to re-raise you.

You were probably beat anyway, so be happy you bet on the light side.

I dont love the re-raise PF with AK. You should have been happy to call him there. Everyone forgets that AK is just a drawing hand...yes its the best drawing hand, but its still a draw. You raise it to minimize the field, and drive out the trash. Poops raise did that for you already. No need to re-raise here. I would only be making the re-raise with QQ-AA.
