Villian was running 41-41-0.7 over 14 hands. 2x opening a lot of pots. I am guessing my 3 bet size should have been larger? Or should I have just flatted?? Not sure the best way to proceed here. I cbet the flop too small I see that and he flopped an open ended straight draw. Hit his straight on the turn, thought about bailing out here but was pot committed by then.

 

So with AKo here , do I flat and see what happens on the flop, keeping the pot small? Or do I bet larger pre and on the flop to try and get him out of the hand?? Whats my best plan here??

I'd make it 43kish pre intending to call a shove.  As played I'd probably fire one barrel on the flop and then shut it down if he called….I probably would've fired more then your 3b size pre…..I'd bet at least 1/2 pot and probably more like 2/3 pot.  I'm probably c-betting and shutting down though if shown any aggression.  I'd go ahead and take my free card on the turn and evaluate the river but probably trying to get to a showdown at that point.

Agree with Cougars. I probably 3 bet to like 44,999 pre-flop and call a shove for sure.

Post-Flop: Once he calls the c-bet you have to shut it down when the Turn doesn't improve our hand. A flat looks pretty strong there. And when he min-raises the Turn it's definitely a fold if we get this far again with the same mistakes.

Never flat here pre.

I would make it 2.25-2.5x preflop, 2x is just too small and inviting him to call a lot and put you in a weird stack to pot ratio with a hand that doesn't flop well.  As played I'm fine with bet/folding flop
