CBet fails, so I just give up
Sensible, or no?

Should flop just be check back?

Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BTN: 126.7 BB
SB: 102 BB
BB: 286.1 BB
UTG: 112.6 BB
MP: 100 BB
Hero (CO): 101.5 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has K♥:A♥:

fold, MP raises to 2.4 BB, Hero raises to 7.5 BB, fold, fold, fold, MP calls 5.1 BB

It depends on the villain in this hand if I would Cbet or not.
If you Cbet and villain called it's tough to continue when villain leads in to you on the turn, but it's a weird move.

Agreed.
On a rainbow board with no open-enders possible, I think opponent waited to the turn to see if it was "safe" to bet.

I have nothing that can give ma a showdown with better than top pair, and sets and two pair hands fit his betting pattern too well.

With so few hands at this game, it is hard to call here with just Ace high

I would likely just want to check the flop because I think the flop hits his range well enough and AK has some amount of showdown value+ we can obv hit top pair still, if we get raised OTF we are forced to fold our equity

Yeah, I think that this was a great spot for a delayed CBet -- but I failed to do so.
