AK raising into a shortie. Is this a donk play?
 

Is this a terrible call? I think his range is probably 99+, AJs+? Or is this spew?

That's a call with joy. I'd even call here with AQ.

...
Are you seriously asking if it's a spew to get it allin for 20bb with Ace-King?

No, no it's not.

I'd call sooooooooooooooooooo much lighter than AK here.

Btw, if he had just called I'd be cbetting and calling his allin on any flop/just putting him in.

I call here with any pair, A8+. You need 40% equity and you don't need much of a hand vs a shorty to get there.
