Default NL50, AKs facing push on flop with TPTK

I have major problems with situations like this, most of the time you think you have the best hand, but when you call, you face a set, 2 pair etc. I really need to get a standard line for situations like this, because I'm loosing way too much on misplaying these situations.


Villain is 47.5/4.3/1.54 over 300+ hands

FullTiltPoker Table Tropicana (6 max) - $0.25/$0.50 - No Limit Hold'em
Seat 1: UTG ($104.85)
Seat 2: UTG+1 ($44.40)
Seat 3: Button ($30.10)
Seat 4: Hero ($63.20)
Seat 6: BB ($27)
Hero posts the small blind of $0.25
BB posts the big blind of $0.50
The button is in seat #3

*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to Hero [A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]]
UTG folds
UTG+1 raises to $1.75
Button folds
Hero raises to $5
BB folds
UTG+1 calls $3.25

*** FLOP *** [Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]]
Pot size: $10.50
Hero bets $8
UTG+1 raises to $39.40, and is all in

what a horrible flop.

instafold here every time.

We re-raised preflop = goot.

we bet ~psb on flop (I'd make it $10 here but $8 is fine) = goot.

then he pushes OTT!!

he has a big hand here AA,KK,QQ,KQ are all WA the other most likely candidate AK is a chop.

This is something we are ahead of almost never.

MCNL rule #2: in re-raised pots villains are almost never bluffing.

Play at Micro level is much more straightforward than most people think. They aren't playing back at you and most of them wouldn't know how to if they wanted to play back.

I'd expand the range we can call a little bit (A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]) but even those are only ~50% equity and don't get us to the point we can call getting 2:1

If you are counting hands like T9s and ATs, then you should probably include JTs, which has us destroyed.

This looks like a fold.
