AK hand

3/6NL on Bodog, just sat down, dont' have any reads really.
No hand histories, sry.

Here is dealt AKo in BB with $600. Folded to MP2 who makes it 24. He has hero Covered. 2 others in LP call (stacks not important).
Back around to hero. I just really hate my spot here. How many of you re-raise PF in this hand. How many just smooth call. Well I call, while not feeling very good about my spot.

Flop A /images/graemlins/diamond.gif Q /images/graemlins/spade.gif 3 /images/graemlins/club.gif.
Action to Hero. How many people lead this flop. Im just lost here, I dont know the correct play. Well I check and the original raiser makes it 75.
Folded around to hero.
Whats my action????

I re-raise pre-flop. A K is a crappy holding OOP in a multiway pot. Hopefully, a re-raise takes it down PF. If it does not, a CB into a lone opponent takes it down alot.

Thank you Tongo, how much would you usually raise in this spot?

it sucks being OOP.
you have two options on the flop.
raise to $75. (my preference)
or call cause you are OOP.

you HAVE to lead this flop (3/4 pot sized bet) whether you called or raised PF. If you don't lead and get bet into, your in a sticky situation. If you lead the flop and MP reraises, get out.
