Default Re: Simple Push against Preflop raiser

[ QUOTE ]
Thx for your answer, but its not exactly what I wanted. It looks like a decent play because AKo is a good hand, and minraise often means "hand, I dont want to push" and only sometimes "I have AA/KK, come over the top".

However I want an exact mathematical explanation why this play is correct.

Well, you cannot get an exact mathematical explanation since you then would have to now excatly what range of hands your opponents would be minraising with and you don't know that. You also needs to know what handrange all your opponents would be calling you with. You can make estimates, but it want be a 100% correct mathematical answer.
So you just make the play that rates to be +EV. Pushing is good.
