Preflop: Hero is CO with K/images/graemlins/spade.gif, A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
UTG folds, UTG+1 folds, MP1 folds, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises to $1</font>, MP3 folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $3</font>, Button calls $3, SB (poster) calls $2.75, BB folds, MP2 calls $2.

Flop: ($12.50) 5/images/graemlins/club.gif, 3/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 4/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, MP2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $5</font>, Villain raises $7. Villain is all-in. SB folds, MP2 folds. Hero . . .

What do you do here? The Villain could have anything . . . overpair, set, two pair, made straight, top pair with ace kicker. It's party, so absolutely nothing is possible too. Pot is laying roughly 2.5-1.

I would fold thinking he has middle pair and i dont have odds

Fold. Even if all your outs ar clean and give you the best hand you don't have odds to call. I'm also sceptic to the $5 bet on the flop. That screems "I missed with A K, please bluff me". It´s a check or a real bet, about $10, and I´m inclined to check here. The board is really draw rich, and if you get called, you don't know if you're beat or if someone is chasing a draw.

When you miss with your AK it's usually correct to shoot another, about pot sized, barrel. $5 is a little low on a pot like that. A flush draw would be getting pretty decent odds. But besides that, when someone plays back at you, especially by going all in, you have to lay AK down. Any pair would be bad, especially with a flush draw with it. You gotta accept your defeat and live to fight another day.
