Default AK o/s Levels 1 + 2

I think its the general consensus that folding is the most likely option when you hold AK o/s when raised all in pre flop. Would be interested to see the results of these 3.

Edit: oops blind levels in subject.

Yeah, I'm willing to gamble in the 3rd case but not the first two.

From the BB. Obviously everyone else has folded I'm guessing. Oh and it's level 1 & 2 so 10/15 and 15/30.

I definitely fold the first two. Last one is trickier. If he's been totally donkish to get down to 400 then I call as he's likely to have "any ace", but without a read it's a fold.

Without a read I really don't mind calling any of these. I guess I have not seen enough bizzare open pushes to really get a feel for what it means yet, and I am greatly influenced by MTTs where one should embrace variance (in +EV situations, even very thin ones) early to mitigate it later. What do people open push with most often? Do people really open push AA/KK? It's such a donk move to open push for 30ish BB. May be worth it just to see what the hell they do it with if you expect to see them in the future.

Yes.

Besides, I have no idea what my edge is. It could be 65%, but it could be a 45% dog or worse. I would rather try to accumulate where I have a better handle on where I stand.

Then again, if Villian has open pushed several hands in a row or something like that then I figure it's worth the gamble.

At the $10's it is not a donk move, I did it the other day with AA. Called by K8o. No, I'm not kidding.
