Stars NL $100: So AK flops TPTK in a reraised pot.....

[ddg333]

Ok... MP1 in the 2nd hand has only shown down one hand so far at this table. (1st hand) I've been playing fairly loose and aggressive considering it's 9 handed so I've been played back at a fair bit. My normal game would be the 6-max tables at party. My read on him was that he's a weekend gambler, so I wasn't quite sure what to do when he shoved his stack in my face (2nd hand). Do we make this call or do we give him credit for 2pair/set/unlikely Q10? Also.. I know cold calling AK OOP is pretty bad here but it allows me to get away if MP1 reraises again quite cheaply.
CO's minreraise preflop doesn't scare me particularly. I've seen him do this with mid-high pocket pairs and AQ.

Am I good here slightly more than 1/3 times? This would be 1.8:1 right? $73 to win $135. This is the guy who thought his 3s were worth 30 bucks on a flushed board. I didn't have my HUD going yet unfortunately so no quantitative reads of that sort. Sorry if this hand is easy.. just checking.

[ImsaKidd]

He limp/called the first hand, this one he seems more aggro. This might be the type of player to push Kx here though, or a flush draw. I think you've gotta call.

[EMc]

I think I call here as well, given the odds and the situation. He will often show you KQ, KJ, and K10, maybe even QJ.

That's what I was wondering.. if I'm not comfortable in these situations is this best being OOP and all?

So I stoved the equity in this hand with a fairly wide range for his openraising requirements and I ended up with this:

In retrospect this call may have been -EV, although not terribly so. The odds just aren't quite there. Is this range reasonable/missing anything?

In the first hand you played you hand exactly like a flopped flush and anyone who isn't a complete retard would spot it a mile off either bet or check call.

The second hand is fine PF if you ask me I'm not folding AK every time there is a pussy raise behind me, but on the flop you have to fold what an earth is he pushing here thats worse than AK?

LOL actually I folded preflop in the first hand but I would have been in some pain had I played it out.

Results: he flips over 8h10h for the combo draw. Turn and river are bricks... MHIG. Still not sure about this though.
