I might just call and push on a spade or K turn. Maybe even a blank, but then again you could just reraise flop if that's your intention on turn.

Call, fake a flush draw. CRAI turn ftw

i fold. what range would you give an unknown mini4betting you? if the range is JJ+/AK, then you only beat 1 within that range, and that hand isn't putting any more money in the pot unimproved.

i don't understand the 4bet call pf. i know he just minibet you, but do you really have the odds to hit the flop you need with that much money already in the pot versus his probable range? if he had just 3bet you, then its different, but he's getting 20% of his stack in pf here.

I don't mind the call. Pushing could be spew against a possibly solid player -- conversely, it fails to extract enough from spewy unknowns.

As played, in this case AK is t3h nuts and should be played accordingly.

why? are we expecting him to show up with a KQ or something?

i also don't understand the relevence of a spade on the turn. its a 4bet pot against a medium stack who probably has a big pp. if he liked the flop at all, he's not going to care about a 3rd spade hitting on the turn.
