I think it's ok. Hard to fold this turn and 3bet would be an overplay. I don't expect him to bluff the river and we are most likelly against better ace or sometimes a fullhouse.

What`s the point of calling turn when you fold on every single card on the river and he will definately continue with the aggression?

Why do you think that he is definitelly continuing with the aggression? I think he might bluff this turn, but I doubt he would continue bluffing the river. If he would, good for him.

Turn bet is telling the truth and you have to decide there if you are playing this hand to the end or you are folding. No reason to call his raise and not call river.

If you call- make a note.

So, we will just fold the turn even if he is almost minraising? I think this turn card is sometimes a good one for trying them to represent an ace, because they think that we can't have it. Given the pot odds he gave us, I think we can check him out by calling. When he bets the river, I think he is never bluffing.

What does the K on river changed? AK was ahead even without the K on river, right?

If there weren't so many draws I would say fold turn. No sure how I would play the river, probably fold - on a going day that is!

Nothing changes. If he was ahead on the flop, still is. The difference for me is that I don't expect him to bluff anymore.

Do you think he is bluffing the turn?

I'd fold turn to a raise. It's clearly that the two aces didn't scare him and, because you have only 4 as kicker, it's highly likely that he has a bigger ace.
