NL100 - AK facing flop push
 

Villain was very tight with stats 6/2.7/5 over ~100 hands

Would you call here with these stats of villain?
I can hardly imagine a hand i can beat given his stats.

I thought he either has AK too or a set of 5´s since he would reraise pf with AA or KK

Thanks for reply

Tough to get away from top 2-pair, but I would get away from this one, due to Villain's stats. I think you're up against a set very often, AK sometimes, and a flush draw a negligible % of the time.

Re: NL100 - AK facing flop push
 

Well, this is a time where I think you're looking at a split at best. There really isn't anything villian has that you beat.

So, I guess you can just fold.

I might reraise this preflop though, since SB just called (likely not AA/KK) and MP2 only has $30.

At best your splitting...

Thoughts on checking the flop??

Even I'm folding here and I'm a station.

Re: NL100 - AK facing flop push
 

With those stats would he really be loose enough to call a raise and reraise of $6.50 with 55? If he is going in with 55 you would think he would make his move on the turn when more money is in, or at least make a smaller raise?

I thought about it afterwards. But then we would have to call him down, if he makes reasonable sized bets, or? Since we don´t really know where we stand.

Of course most hands I beat fold to a flop bet, but i thought it would be best to win it right there and give no freecards.

Yeah it isn´t really in his range. But on the other hand there are a lot of FR players who love to setmine and call even bigger raises with any pair.


I folded to his push. As said above, at best im splitting. A lot of times he has AK here, but it wasn´t really worth it to risk my stack just to find out.

Re: NL100 - AK facing flop push
 

Fold that, it's AK/AA/KK mostly but I do note he's very aggy postflop....

Any idea what his image of you night be?

Re: NL100 - AK facing flop push
 

I was tight and agressive. Nothing special happened before, no big bluffs or any moves if i remember correctly.

I thought about that too. What he was thinking i could have. And to be honest i think he put me on exactly AK. I didn´t rr preflop so he knows almost for sure i don´t have AA or KK. If he had AK too, that was a pretty good push, since he knows i often won´t call.

4bet preflop, isolate shortstack, if that doesn't work u know somethings up.

given the description, i dont mind folding flop.
