1/2 NL weird preflop action with AK 200BB deep

[Thoth]

I think it is a clear fold if SB folds, but now it's a lot closer as the coinflip situations are so much more attractive. Still felt I was too far behind UTG too often, especially as I have to basically c/f the flop if I call and miss and will certainly be behind if I push and get called.


UTG was indeed making a play with AJo. SB was being a total idiot with Q3s. I cried a little inside when the cards went open and the flop came A63. The 3 on the river cheered me up some.

Funny thing is that with open cards the push with Q3s is actually correct. His equity 3way is more than 1/3 of the pot with some dead money. If only UTG calls he's still making money as his equity is $180 where he puts an extra $177 in the pot.
