Default Re: AKo against an ultra-tight UTG raise

I play it the same. The 3-bet preflop is completely without value against the pfr, and the BB coming along isn't a horrible proposition.

I'm confused.

If I'm not 3-betting this pre-flop, then I don't even wanna play it...

Gaining the initiative against a weak and very passive opponent seems pretty overrated here. Our 3-bet isn't for value against anything our opponent has, and dead money in the blinds is likely to make this a better than coinflip scenario. I'm loathe to fold it, but I've done a similar action with TT before. Perhaps folding both is appropriate.
