Default Re: 109: AK flop play

This is a nasty spot. I totally don't buy that BB is beating me, though. The instinct of most players would be to check if they've flopped something as monstrous as a set or top two. I think he has something like AJ, AT or JTs (and don't try telling me people won't call these to double raises, because they can and do when the actual raise amount is this low).

Nevertheless I think I'm going to fold. Shoving my stack in seems a little premature. Calling will only help if MP2 folds. If he raises allin, I've lost my 200 and might be folding a split best hand as well. If he calls, I'm going to have no idea what to do on the turn.

We're left with fold by a process of elimination. Often in these 3-way piggy in the middle situations, it's best to write the whole thing off as a bad experience and move on.
