Default AK is the blind against a huge flop raise. NL200 on FT.

No pt stats on villain, as I just sat down. I have no idea whether he built his stack with good play or luck. Strange spot here. He's showing a lot of strength, but I did hit a pretty good flop.

Yeah. I think that's interesting too. It seems I lose often when I get my whole stack in with tptk, but you would think that if he had a monster he wouldn't be interesting in blowing the rest of the table off the map. idk

I guess this guy doesn't believe in foreplay. Or lube. It's actually not that much of an overbet. About 1.5 times the pot. He's not on a draw, so you're probably calling for a chop.

Another way to think about it, is that he is sticking his stack in, without regards to the two players left to act. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

maybe im a nit but i think i fold this. unless villian is total donk (and if he plays AQ or AJ like this here he is a donk) i think you are beat here and at best calling for a chop. You have clearly defined the stregnth of your hand by leading with a solid raise into 3 people and he has to give you credit for min AQ and obviously AK. he has reraised you after youve shown considerable stregnth and, i think the most important point, is also disregarding the players yet to act. i would guess he plays a set a bit slower so i think he has A10 or A3(trying to avoid counterfeit or u hitting your kicker).

Default Results

I forgot about this thread but since there were some pretty good responses I'll post the results. Yes I messed this one up pretty bad, every once in a while I make a bad call like this where I only evaluate my hand. I knew almost right away that it was a bad call, but I just posted it here to find out just how bad it was. Turns out everyone thinks it's a fold. He had AT. Fortunately I made a RR straight, but obviously that's not important, since I was crushed when I made the call.

Serves him well that you beat him, hanging around with AT after a big raise.
