Re: Two AKu hands
Hand 1 - When I'm defending my blind, I personally love the play made, at least against players capable of folding. When faced with a potential steal, I routinely 3-bet decent hands (A-8 and up, any PP, etc, 2 painted), follow it up with strong bets. I'm constantly amazed at how profitable I've found it to be.
So, the only counter to the blind-defend 3-bet is cap, and play strong. I think you're in a position to take this pot more than you think.
Of course, that's subject to read on player. Lower AF could be different story.
