Default AKo against a possible isolation raise.

Mp1 is a LAG, the type of LAG that plays lots of hands and raising all of them preflop, but usually give up easily after on the flop and post flop.

CO is a TAG, he could have a big hand or can also be trying to isolate the maniac

Final Pot: 11.75 BB

I called with AKo, should I have folded this? I didn't want to cap this pre-flop because I wanted to see if MP1 likes his hand enough to cap it.

Thoughts on the call down HU. I like calling down HU against a TAG after he 3-bets the flop. I see no value in going crazy in HU situations. If MP1 stayed in the hand I would cap the flop for value.

This hand may seem like I am weak tight, but I am not.
I am just selectively aggressive.
