Default $2/5 NL - AKo on Button

$2/5 NL game at Casino Niagara. $100 min/$300 max. I have roughly $800 and cover everyone except a guy who folded preflop.

I'm on the button with A-K offsuit. UTG+1 limps, MP1 limps, cutoff limps, I raise to $25. UTG+1 calls. Everyone else folds. Pot is ~$67. Flop: A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. He checks to me, I bet $60. He pushes all in quickly and announces it relatively loudly for another ~$110. Villain hasn't done anything crazy...pretty passive. I don't think he's raised preflop a single time, but he does a lot of limping. Other than that, no reads. Call/fold?

This is a tough one. If he really had a baby flush do you think he would c/r here risking a free card? If he thinks rationaly, I would tend to put him on aq with the queen of hearts. Is he rational?

I think given the odds, and his kinda weird style of play, you should call this, being that you are not drawing dead(full house)...you still have a 16% chance to win 6.5-1 basically if you are behind...but I'd say you are only behind here about 60% of the time, so as I said...given the odds, and his play, I think it's a call.

Live I'd have to go with my feel for the guy and the situation. Often the quick/loud all in isn't really that strong but can be player dependent. You are about in the same bad shape against a flush as you are against a set of 3's and you are about 17-19%. Getting 2.7:1 you need to win ~27% of the time, so if you feel he makes this move with a lone heart or less often enough to make up for it call. I'd give him a look and see how relaxed he seems. If there is any hint he is not super comfortable I call. I may call anyway.

Results: I call. Villain tables a K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and I'm ahead. Turn is a Q. I feel another Q coming, but the river blanks and MHIG.
