I usually push with AK UTG here, but I wanted to try out a new strategy and decided to slowplay it. After villain minraises I put him on a set or air, with air being much more likely. I don't have a deep enough stack to do anything but push or fold at this point, so I push. How often is villain showing me a set here?

3x BB is a slowplay?

You push a 30x+ BB stack?

o0.

And you better have a good read for 3-bet reraising there.

You have alot more to worry about than a set. Pair draw combos, top pair, small overpairs, etc. And he'll call alot there after min check raising. How does that not scream strength to you? If you didn't have a read it's a terrible play, and if you did it's still probably pretty sketchy. I don't make this play. And what's all this about slowplaying and open-pushing?
