Default $114: AK utg, called and RRed, kinda deep

Both villains unknown. Button doubled up by calling a raise out of bb and flopping a set against KK in L2, and he lead into the raiser on the flop. So what do you like doing here?


PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t50 (6 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

Hero (t3110)
UTG+1 (t2650)
CO (t1175)
Button (t3695)
SB (t1420)
BB (t1450)

Preflop: Hero is in UTG with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
<font color="red">Hero raises to t150</font>, <font color="gray">UTG+1 folds</font>, CO calls t150, <font color="red">Button raises to t500</font>, <font color="gray">SB folds</font>, <font color="gray">BB folds</font>, Hero?

chip,

i fold.

what do you think co has?
what do you think button has?

if button is anywhere near standard, AK is likely the worst hand he has here, ever. and it's pretty unlikely you're getting him to fold. so, with having already put in my 150 for this hand, i chuck it.

I'd put CO on something like 55+, AJ+, KQs. And Button on something like JJ+ (maybe TT) and AK. I was just thinking that I could maybe move button off of TT/JJ and possibly AK and that the dead chips out there might make it worth going after.

With a 3k stack I dont think the reward of adding the 800 to your stack outweighs the risk of clashing vs the only stack that can cover you raising your UTG 3x

To think that buttons line here is to raise JJ/TT and fold to a push is optomistic based on the way he doubled calling a raise oop with what im guessing is a smaller pp .. also if you are lucky and when he calls with a pair and not AK, the pair is &lt;KK .. some of your outs might have been folded by the CO

Gross spot. I like call &gt; fold &gt; push but I don't think any of them are that much different $EV wise.

I just fold. The standard size reraise is usually a pretty big hand.
