Very early stage of a 7$ freezeout MTT.
UTG+1 had lost a very big pot 2 hands before, so I dont give him big credits for having a real hand here.
The call from MP+1 was a bit scary, but AKo does not play well oop so i decided to squeeze with the intention to call an all-in from MP+1.
On the flop my first idea was to check/call. Such a dry board with no scare card for me to come i thoughts its the best chance my opponent gets some more money in.
After some thought I then got the shivers and c/r all in - which feels like a HUGE mistake here. He might fold 99-JJ here to such a strong play.
What is the best line against an unknown opponent? Check/call flop check/raise turn? Or just bet and hope he sees this as a standard c-bet?
