UTG has about $40 and is unknown
I have $50 and am new to the table and sitting in the SB
UTG+1 is a bad loose passive and covers

UTG opens to $2, UTG+1 calls. I make it $9 with AKo.

UTG makes it $16, UTG+1 cold calls. UTG has $24 left, I have $41 and UTG+1 covers me.

Your play?

If UTG+1 is bad loose-passive then you're hand still rates to dominate/coinflip with his. Personally I'm mush more worried about UTG's $8 raise on top of your $9 because it looks a lot like a fish playing AA/KK. It doesn't look like you have a lot of fold equity here even against hands like JJ QQ when held by these kind of players.

I probably just call, but I'm not saying it's correct. There is already a lot in the pot. If an A or K flop I'm likely going broke.

I feel calling is the worst play here, but the others are probably bad aswell.
The little reraise and the cold call are annoying since you probably dominate 1 guy and are dominated by the other, or maybe dominated by both.
Then again, its hard to fold AK with awesome odds to call.

yeah a call sucks here because it's all obviously going in on the flop.

if my A and K are outs then i want to see all 5 cards, if they're not then i should dump it right now....

so i guess it's just up to deciding if the min 4bet is always AA?


i guess if he showed me KK i could call to spike an ace but...
