I think I would have reraised on the flop here, something like an extra $15. A hand like AK/AQ is what I would expect to see here. If he is on a flush draw you want to ruin his odds to call and make him pay if he does. With the way it was played I might consider a fold on the river.Had to edit my first response. I meant to say reraise the flop.

I raise the flop so as to build a pot and get it all in on the turn.

I usually raise the flop here, as it looks like he has the ace, however... I was trying something new this time because I feel like when I raise the flop, most people are ready to lay AK or AQ down to me by the turn or only pay off smaller bets than the pot size I want. I felt by just calling I was setting myself up to win a bigger pot, while I was taking a bit larger risk. While this thinking might be wrong, it was just something I wanted to try... With that said, if we're going to just call the flop, is the raise size on the turn okay? Call or Fold the river?

Strictly river only, I call. A flush draw doesn't usually keep leading out.Oh, and raise the flop.

The only hand that I'm really afraid of on the river is something like AK or AQ with two diamonds. This is obviously a possible hand and seems to fit the betting patterns. I'm not sure if we can call the river or not. I'd probably pay him off, but ISAP.I think we need to raise the flop. We're looking for him to have AK here and to get some more money out of him. Raising the flop accomplishes several things. First, it gives AK a chance (if he's a donkey) to go broke with top pair top kicker. Let's not totally rule this out. Second, I think that smooth calling the flop and raising the turn looks way too suspicious. Raising the flop looks like AQ trying to see if his hand is good and could get a reraise out of AK. Also, raising the flop obviously protects against a flush draw that could be betting out. More importantly, it also protects us from getting our action killed. If he does have AK without a diamond and a diamond falls on the turn, even if he doesn't have the flush, it'll be more difficult to extract money from him.I think we may as well get as much money in on the flop as possible when we're pretty sure we have the best hand (if he has AA we go broke on the flop I think).

I have nothing against trying new moves, but you have to have a pretty solid read on your opponent. Probably someone you've pegged as a calling station or someone willing to go down with top pair and not much else.As far as the raise on the turn, it's only costing him $10 to call in a $37 pot. Besides that he's shown he's more than willing to continue the hand. I would push him all-in here. You passed up your chance to apply pressure on the flop, so now you have to turn it up on fourth street.

If I raised all-in on the turn that would be a raise size of twice the pot, $40. I don't think that's all that great a decision... I did call the river and he showed As Kc so I took down the pot. I think LongLiveYorke pointed some things out about why raising the flop would be good that for some reason I wasn't thinking about at the time, even though the reasonings are pretty standard for doing so... I definitely should have raised the flop.

If this is the case, you need to be raising more flops and turns

Without a doubt I raise the flop and get the chips in on the turn. Villian really likes his hand and will pay you off with AK here and commit all his chips by the turn but you must raise the flop. There will be no river decision if you get them in before the river.

I count the pot at 27.50 after you match the 5.50, so you'd be raising 1.4x pot.

You got beat giving the cheap turn card. It's a sooted AQ. If I get popped here I get it all in and take my medicine if needed.

QFT. At least hit it very hard on the turn. Call the river as played.
