Re: nl 100, AKs, do I go broke?
 

I dont like going broke here very much with no history, ull only get action for sure if ur tying and sometimes by a gambly aq IMO, otherwise he has a set and is stacking it or an underpair (much less likely to be betting behind here IMO) and is folding it (this is considering that hes got a normal 3betting range vs UTG). Id c/c and re-evaluate turn, btw his flop bet feels very strong so i would play tentatively. If hes behind than hes prob got 4 outs and its not the end of the world to let him c a turn decently cheaply.

Hmmmm, you are not going to get called by a worse hand here, nor are you going to make ak or a better hand fold. Are you doing this purely to protect your hand? Is that something that is worth the risk? Or would you rather cc and see what happens/possibly let him bluff the turn?

aq/aj/a10 call. c/c is OK too.

Re: nl 100, AKs, do I go broke?
 

I go broke here every time.

I think against an unknown c/raising the flop is fine as he'll probably check behind everything you beat on turn if you just call here.

130BB=100BB, no need to change your strategy.

You're OOP, just 4-bet pf if you 4-bet anything.

Re: nl 100, AKs, do I go broke?
 

i would probably just muck preflop, there is no shame folding to a nit here. reverse implied odds etc.

on this flop c/c is the best, there is absolutely no point raising, you aren't gonna get action from hands you beat

14hands

Re: nl 100, AKs, do I go broke?
 

Whoa let's not get crazy...he has 14 hands, and his numbers are like 7/7. He could be a nit, but way more likely he just hasn't caught any cards. If you want to proceed cautiously, that's okay...play it like the OP did and call, I think it's standard to 4-bet though. I c/c flop and probably try to get it in on turn.
