Against one villain I'd probably call but against two I guess I'm beat. Would anyone call here?

[DerrtySlime]

bet like 200-300 here. this really isn't a great flop for you. pot sized then fold is really spewy. obv fold after you get raised.

[ADLinden]

yea I think this looks like a fold.

[sloove]

You're right, Derrty. This overbet will be called by someone who beats me anyway.

[starchyy]

If you put in less on the flop, this hand becomes even easier to fold.

[mmorpg]

check the flop?

[sloove]

Although this flop is dangerous against two opponents I still like it a bit and should try to find out where I stand with a bet, imo.

obv. not with an overbet

No, as played I would fold this.

Another thing I don't like here is the raise from UTG with AKo in the very early stage. I rather limp this hand here.

[malnek]

eww dont limp this hand

Here's why I am considering a limp UTG this early. This is a drawing hand like any other, and you dont want a coin flip for a larger part of your chips here. Limp and pay close attention to the preflop and postflop betting. Let go of the hand if it's to much action behind you. If there is a lot of limpers, somebody will probably draw to a straight (if it isn't already made) on this flop. I would bet 100 or something to this flop, but fold to a reraise.

What I am trying to say is that it is much too early to get too involved here, and people tend to loose a lot with AK early and only win small pots with the hand.
