Re: Folding AKo Preflop
[ QUOTE ]
At best you're holding the best overcards although it is much more likely that you're no better then a 45% equity favorite to win this hand given that you think the villian could be holding a good pocket pair.
[/ QUOTE ]That's why you call. With 20 min levels and prob ~8-12 hands per level you cannot ever fold AK in this spot. You can't really 'outplay' opponents or 'find a better spot' when the blinds reach critical mass. CO is shoving 22+, two broadway, any Ace. With his t2100 in the pot this is a snapcall. Winning this pot puts you in position to coast to final table. Losing it is no big deal, you made the right play.
