AK, easy call?
Near the bubble of a 180 seat 20+2 on PS. Villain has been playing fairly solid. My guess is that he's more likely raising with QQ or JJ (maybe AK or AQ), but should I take that chance? I'm more interested in final table than cashing... and I'm about 22 of 25 right now.

Re: AK, easy call?
You're shortstacked, likely a coin flip with decent odds. Easy push.

If he limped from UTG, would that be suspicious of AA or KK?

AKo is just too good of a hand to throw away here. Get all your money in.

A little tip, not trying to be an ass. Anytime you have 6x the BB and see AK, barring any insane circumstances like a satellite or multiple raises in front of you, get it all in and be happy with yourself.

Re: AK, easy call?
I was happy to finally have AK... though this was one of those times I had a gut feeling he had AA or KK. It's easier to have that feeling in live play, but online I've sensed it a few times. Should I go against my "gut feeling", or fold it? Folding looks to weak to me since I'm shortstacked.
Anyway... he did have KK, and it held up. |
