Default Re: AK 3-way in a tough spot

It's too early to raise to 2.5x bb for my liking. I like 3xbb. If mp1 will reraise with a wide range I shove this pf. This accomplishes a few things:

1. There's tons of dead money in the pot.
2. Any sizable reraise that gets called will build a big pot that will be a little less then your stack.
3. A shove negates your positional disadvantage.
4. Worse hands from mp1 like AJ, KQ will probably call.

A call of the reraise isn't horrible given stack sizes.

On the flop in a 4.40 tptk is the nuts. I lead out for 500 for value and shove over the the reraise. 4.40 players absolutely suck, I'd need a read to not shove over the 2 bet.
