Default AK hand

3/6NL on Bodog, just sat down, dont' have any reads really.
No hand histories, sry.

Here is dealt AKo in BB with $600. Folded to MP2 who makes it 24. He has hero Covered. 2 others in LP call (stacks not important).
Back around to hero. I just really hate my spot here. How many of you re-raise PF in this hand. How many just smooth call. Well I call, while not feeling very good about my spot.

Flop A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
Action to Hero. How many people lead this flop. Im just lost here, I dont know the correct play. Well I check and the original raiser makes it 75.
Folded around to hero.
Whats my action????

I re-raise pre-flop. A K is a crappy holding OOP in a multiway pot. Hopefully, a re-raise takes it down PF. If it does not, a CB into a lone opponent takes it down alot.

Default Re: AK hand

it sucks being OOP.
you have two options on the flop.
raise to $75. (my preference)
or call cause you are OOP.

you HAVE to lead this flop (3/4 pot sized bet) whether you called or raised PF. If you don't lead and get bet into, your in a sticky situation. If you lead the flop and MP reraises, get out.
