Re: Live $1/$2 NL: Fold AKo Pre-Flop, OOP After Aggressive Betting?

And this is assuming 3 pocket pairs from 22-AA. The times you push this margin and are against AA or KK, you are really in bad shape, right?

Well, yeah if someone has AA you are in bad shape obv. You are like 6% or something vs AA. But you are like 30% vs KK.
Anyway lets just say that our plan works...you flat call and UTG raises to $70, one other person calls, and it gets back to you. There is now like $190 in the pot or something..more if someone else calls (very possible in a live game). So you can push with good FE - I suspect you only get called by a very narrow range - if you do get called you have plenty of equity vs that range given the $$$ in the pot.
Of course this is all best case scenario...the pot could just end up like 9 million handed which would not be so great for you, but not terrible, or UTG could reraise and it could back to you HU which would be a tricky spot.
Worth a try though imo. And better than folding for sure, and probably better than reraising yourslef given the stack sizes and fact that you are OOP.
