I really think this is AK but I'd rather not flip for a stack.

Or be foolish enough to put his whole range on one hand

It's gonna be AK/AA/KK... you're dominated by two, and flipping with the other.

This was my line of thinking as well... I just wanted to make sure this line of thinking was right.

And yes, I mucked.

I've been wondering about this myself.

How does the fact that there is a third caller in the fray affect the decision of fold/call ?

in this case not too much b/c a 30/7 has a huge preflop calling range

cold calling button behind you and then MP shoving OTT of both I think points to MP having a hand.

This is very player dependant but in this spot I'd snap call if...

I have history of aggressive play vs this player, if I've ever noted this villain doing this kind of thing before. If MP and BTN are having a bit of a thing. If I think MP is tilting.

Vs some 24/10's I'd snapcall - vs a generic 24/10 it's a fold.

Fold. You have a coinflip at best.

Also note that villain is playing w/ 160BB's.

While effective stacks are less, it's still an indicator that:
(a) he has a big hand
(b) he's made some money and is less likely to be an idiot
