Re: 100 NL: Is this really the best way to play AKs?

1) Someone provide math or I'll do it after work for the case that CO will only call with AA/KK and the blinds do not act at all

I don't think this is a good assumption. IF his 4-bet range is AK/JJ+/air, he will fold air 100% but not AK/QQ/JJ. Just don't think he'll 4-bet/fold strong hands in steal situations that often, even though he'll fold these hands some portion.

2) For the sake of argument discuss calling the 4bet, calling the raise and folding to the 4bet.

Calling the raise is ok during the right circumstances, but not often at 100nl. I just can't ever see calling the 4-bet being correct, our implied odds when we hit is not good, eg if we hit a flop of Kxx QQ/JJ might be able to get away while AA/KK always will stack us. And we like to see 5 cards. If we think his 4-betting range is wide enough we should just get it in, otherwise we fold.
