i disagree people saying to 3-bet preflop...unless you're willing to pull a MOH. i might do that sometimes...

i might have just called his flop $40 since we're WA/WB. let AK keep betting...let QQ fire a second barrel instead of getting an easy fold to our flop raise.

as played, i think it's close, but i call...

I actually like move of honor a lot here.

much better than original line of raise to 150.

moh makes it look like you really don't want a call.

"seems to be a reasonable player"

I fold and wait for a better spot.

I like it as well. Anyways, given the situation your in, I have to call. Yes, he might have Kings, but I think the times he had AK or is bluffing/semi-bluffing the flop warrants you to go with it.

I think your inital raise should be a little higher with two limpers, closer to $15. I don't mind flat calling with position preflop but I agree with other posters that you should be continuing the "trap" by flat calling the flop, there is still plenty of time to get all of the money in there.

As played I think this is a call. For one thing there are twice as many combinations of AK as there are KK. Also since KK is the current nuts on a pretty harmless board I can't imagine your opponent wanting to raise you out of the pot on the flop.

Close, but this is definitely a call. As Elus pointed out, if the range of hands he would play this aggressively is AA, KK, and AK, there's a 60% chance you're ahead and a 10% chance you're chopping.

I think swolfe had a good point though... this is a classic way ahead/way behind situation. I would just call on the flop instead of raising.

If he is decent player I would call here. It looks like he is pushing you off “AK” or any medium PP here. I like your call pre-flop btw.
