Default Re: Deeper stacks than normal with AK, repopped $4.40

You can call with pot odds of 1:4! (assuming MP1 joins us) - so at least calling is mandatory here.

The problem is you have to play AK out of position and if you miss your A or K you have to let the hand go - still you hit in about 30% and get pot odds of 1:3,5.

You will mostly be up against QQ+,AK but you can see this soft-squeeze move sometimes with worse holdings too. And even against this tight range you have about 39% equity = 1:1,56 - with pushing you get pot odds of 1:1,25 - so if we assume this range pushing isn't an alternative here.

Still I would call and reorientate on the flop.
