NL 100: AKo Squeeze

[Albert Moulton]

Pushing is much better than calling.

When I'm playing live, and I don't have a read on villain's reraising range, then I usually give him credit for QQ-AA/AK and fold AK if we're over 100bb's deep and I'm OOP like this. Mostly that's because I just don't have as many hands in a session to make up for losing an all-in preflop with AK OOP when villain turns out to be a nit with KK/AA. With more of a read that villain reraises too much, or if villain has a medium-sized stack, then I'd push too. I wouldn't ever call in this spot, however.

So, vs a guy with whom you have no idea what his LP FR reraising range is over your MP2 open raise, a fold isn't terrible IMO if he had a full stack (in OP he only has $69.90 making push look a little better than fold even though you don't have a read on him yet).
