That's my standard line. Nice play.

Some people will condone pushing preflop here, but I'd want to induce action with AK as shortstacked as you are. Ugly flop, but you have to push when checked to.

nice play, MP doesnt have many chips either when compared to rest of the field, you gotta think hes on a weaker A than you especially w/ the limp and then the call of your raise. After the check, IMO id push 100% of the time in this spot. sure he might be setting a trap w/ 44 55 or 66 but i doubt he hit 2 pair, or even a pair. an overpair is possible of course but id expect a raise PF w/ blinds the way they are and his stack the way it is, i doubt hed want to actually see a flop w/ 22, 33, 77, 88, 99, he'd just want to steal the blinds so id expect an open raise w/ 77-AA. after he called your raise id probably eliminate 22-99 so the push is a nice play.

just my opinion
