What's my best +EV move, I guess I crush their holdings

Re: Most +EV ? AKs preflop
 

I'd raise to like $15.. if SB calls that's ok.. CO will probably fold his small pair or suited stuff he's playing.

Re: Most +EV ? AKs preflop
 

and calls if CO shoves?

Re: Most +EV ? AKs preflop
 

I guess it depends on your read of CO.. most people aren't calling AA behind an all in there hoping someone squeezes unless you or SB are habitual squeezers, but most people at 25nl don't even think like that. I think I'd call his all because I just wouldn't believe he would play AA or KK like that.

Re: Most +EV ? AKs preflop
 

yes you must squeeze this preflop, AK hates 4 handed

ild probably fold if CO shoves, call/push shows alot of strength but i doubt he will push

hes thinking would more likely be "zomg AA, ill call to get more people in the pot and not raise them off there hands.....zomg a raise, that guy must have a strong hand and we are deep ill PUUSHH"

Re: Most +EV ? AKs preflop
 

Raise to $12. Instacall if SB pushes... CO is trickier. It really depends whether or not he can cold call AA and KK here. Like it's hard for me to imagine him pushing a worse hand than AKs here, so I guess I'd fold. If he pushes back over, I'd say a loose range is like, 88+, AK, AQ maybe. I'd fold there, since I think his range is actually much tighter.

Re: Most +EV ? AKs preflop
 

CO a thinking player at all? Sure he's nitty, but he looks SUPER aggressive (agg factor 21???), and that leads me to think he might be smart enough to be able to spot a squeeze. (your raise). This may or may not make him smart enough to find a "good" spot to resqueeze.

This possibility makes me think raising 12-15pf and calling a shove from either of these guys is probably the best thing you can do.

Re: Most +EV ? AKs preflop
 

The 21 aggression factor just means he doesn't call postflop.. most people don't include the preflop agg numbers in.

Even if it does, this is an easy 4bet to $14 bc with his stats, is he ever flatcalling AA/KK to "trap" a halfstack?

$16.22 call shove.
