50NL 6max: What should I do on this flop with a big pot and AK?

[OtZman]

No real reads in this hand, but a few hands earlier villain made a similar 3-bet when I raised from the button (after which I folded), so I figured he might think I had air. Please comment on all streets and the sizes I bet. Is my pf 4-bet good?

[True]

you should just shove to his re-raise pf if you are gonna re-raise.

On this flop, just shove AI.

if you c/c you would be getting 3:1 and vs anything that isn't KK/AA/99 that's pretty close. If you imagine you have FE vs some hands and he has air a lot it's your best move.

You mean going AI on the flop is the best move here, right?

Shove it in PF..A "standard" raise here is 50% of the effective stacks..

Flop is a tough spot as you will get looked up by any overpair most often..Based on the PF action shove the flop.. I would say both your A and K are clean outs,you will fold out another AK as well as some pair for the shove to be +EV..And you may well have the best hand anyway..

When I played this one I pushed AI on the flop and took it down, so I suppose I played this one OK, though a push PF would've been the best play.
