Early in session ran into this:
CO is 32/6/0
BTN is 43/7/1

Both over only about 30 hands

Full Tilt Poker, $0.25/$0.50 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 6 Players
LegoPoker (http://www.legopoker.com)Hand History Converter (http://www.legopoker.com/hh)

Hero (BTN): $53.10
SB: $25.60
BB: $33.75
UTG: $93.05
MP: $24.20
CO: $41

Pre-Flop: K/images/graemlins/club.gif A/images/graemlins/heart.gif dealt to Hero (BTN)
UTG folds, <font color="red">MP raises to $1.50</font>, <font color="red">CO raises to $2.50</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $9.75</font>, 2 folds, MP calls $8.25, <font color="red">CO raises to $41 and is All-In</font>,

My first instinct here is to snap call because of the juicy pot odds, how much attention should i pay to BTN's low PFR?
The mini 3 bet I haven't seen from him before but usually 10 10 - QQ and AK show up to this kind of action. Obv CO is calling.Really just checking my decision making process here..

neither one raises many hands preflop, I'm not really liking AK in this situation. I'm probably the only one that folds to the 5 bet all in.

I'm folding here all day. I think it was Phil Gordon who wrote something about the 4b being aces as a general rule. Although, I'd have a hard time folding KK, even here.

I'm folding. No way I'm playing AK in that situation. You'll meet at least one monster here.

It depends on how well your AK will hold. I googled and came up with this site: http://kevingong.com/Math/KKPreflop.html.

Opponent / Pot odds needed.
AA, KK, QQ or AK / 1.39 : 1

And this is in case you hold a suited AK. The pot is 63, and to call it's 41. You get pot odds: 1.54 : 1. That's enough to warrant a call, although the calculation was for a suited AK. Basically it's a coin flip. Personally, I'd fold, especially because of his stats.
