Simple question.
 

Hey, can someone help me out here?

in HOH volume 2 harrington says that to call an all in where you are dominated you only need (x-1) pot odds.

I forget if Harrington said you need 1.7-1 odds or 2.7-1 odds to call an all in where you know you are dominated (i.e. AK to AQ)

I don't have the book on me right now, so help is appreciated, thanks.

You have a 26% chance to win with AQ against AK, so 2.7-1 sounds about right, but I don't think I could bring myself to rely on pot odds if I know that I'm most likely going to lose all of my chips.

It has to be 2.7-1, because you're about a 3-1 dog w/ AQ versus AK, depending on the suit situation.
