AK facing two \"special\" raisers
 

Don't have the HH but this happened last night in $200 NL.

UTG (80/25) Raises to $4 with $170 stack
CO (35/25) Reraises to $14 with $200 stack
I have AK on the button with about $200.

UTG was playing and raising every hand often with air. Over a couple of hundred hands his WTSD was 40% and W$SD was 20%. He joined the table after me which was a special treat.

CO was the reason I joined the table - he lost a $1000 stack mainly to me about a week ago in $200NL.

I Raise to $42
UTG Raises to $100
CO waits a while and folds
I Push for the remaining $70 in his stack.

Ok?

Looks ok given the read.

I don't feel bad if you happen to be up against AA/KK here, there is a lot of dead money, and you will likely get that cash back from these guys if you happen to lose.

No AA or KK. Just wanted to make sure that this was a push against most donkeys and usually a fold against unknown / non-donkey.

It's likely that CO has got one of your aces, so you're probably only 40% to win now. However you're getting better that 2-1 so easy call.

nice

Looks perfect to me. With your read he's probably calling with at least some worse aces as well as a lot of pocket pairs and even some random trash thrown in.

Nice hand.

I prob raise to a little more than 42 but yeah, get it in all day vs "special" people
