Im very sure he has an unimproved small pocket pair here, because I dont think he would raised with a full house. Im I right?
Should i fold, call or 3bet here?

Re: NL100: AKs OOP against limp-call
 

most of the time I muck here

Re: NL100: AKs OOP against limp-call
 

But if i think i would fold more than 50% of the times, shouldnt I put in a potsized 3bet here?

Re: NL100: AKs OOP against limp-call
 

I don't see how we can muck here getting better than 4:1. Readless I dont think we can push (he has to fold 50%+ of the time). But we should be able to call. Stop &amp; go a lot of turns that appear to help our range/hurt his range. Check-raise a lot of turns that actually do help our range.

check flop...then you can see free card on turn or find out where he is w/ check-raise

Re: NL100: AKs OOP against limp-call
 

check flop with intention of raising or getting a free card. if it checks through, check/fold unimproved turn.

that's results-oriented thinking. cbetting this flop is std.

Because we're OOP with A in a medium sized pot with about a 10% chance to improve on the turn and otherwise no idea where we stand in the hand.

meh. i think we know exactly where we stand in the hand, and we have a better than 10% chance to improve on the turn because we don't need an Ace or a King. A Queen and to a lesser degree a Jack will do nicely.
