what? its obvious +EV according to pokerstove results and ive given him tightest pushing range (if you consider villain is reg which seems to be according to his stats/pro nickname). i cant see any reg not pushing AK there in BB

No you haven't, tightest pushing range is KK+. Some people fold AK here, only a complete donk pushes anything other than AK+ given the action (QQ makes hardly ny difference regardless and is unlikely). Pokerstove shows you have a 2% edge with all the assumptions on the optimistic side so if you want to gamble a whole stack on at best a 2% edge then go ahead.

I know AK isn't in CR advised starting hnds for a start.

i would never ever fold if i could put my stack in w/ a 2% edge. If you would then move down until you are rolled well enough

Then you are very lucky that you able to calculate your exact edge at the table. Please read my post better. The edge you calcualte obviously depends on the assumptions you make regarding Villain's hand. The more optimistic your range/weightings you give to each hand then the bigger your edge is. I wouldn't put my chips in if I had made optimistic assumptions (which imo these are) and come up with a 2% edge as that means it is likely that if you use realistic assumptions (if theoretically you could somehow calculate these), then you would come up with a -EV answer.
