Eff stacks: 320

Utg limps
I raise in sb to 12 with A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
Villain (bb) raises to 38
Utg folds

Whats the best line from here?
If you reraise, how much and how do we bet flops that we hit? Those we miss?

If we call, well, i guess we have to bluff some flops at least.

I'm interested in what you guys think since i find myself thinking after these hands i played them wrong!

repop to 99

I actually kinda like a push. It might look like you're frustrated and he could possibly call lighter.

mehh 160 bbs deep you're still only gonna get called when you're smoked. i'd rather 3bet to something like 90 or just call and take a flop w/ position.

op, what's been goin on prior to this? have you been calling his 3bets or just laying them down preflop?

Re: Nl200 - AKs against habitual 3bettor 160 bbs deep?
 

I've folded alot oop i think, i called one time on the button and took it down when he checkfolded the T high flop (no paint at least).

If by "lighter" you mean "call with coinflipping hands with which it's correct for him to call a push and thus we wnat him to fold," that's possible, but I'm fairly sure a dude is never calling a shove with AQ 150bbs deep the first time someone plays back at his 3bets.

You def need to 4bet here though.

Re: Nl200 - AKs against habitual 3bettor 160 bbs deep?
 

Yeah so we're 4betting to ~100, calling if pushed i assume but lets say he calls.

We got like 220 in a ~200 pot, my defaultline have been to push just about anyflop. Think i should do anything different?

Re: Nl200 - AKs against habitual 3bettor 160 bbs deep?
 

If you call, the best you can hope for is Axx flop and that he has AQ I guess, rather rare incident. If you hit the flop, more likely scenario is that you win a small pot or lose a big one. So, it comes down to which bet looks more scary to your opponent, around 100-120 or all-in.

The pot is already a buyin lol but sure, a 3 buyin pot is bigger. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Make it $120 to go.
