UTG 5 handed = MP 6 handed. |

Re: $50 5bet AK?
position is somewhat irrelevant now that lots of hte stacks are in - if we call (which would suck) yes we have position but it's now a 1 street game - most of the time we are facing a flop push and we miss 2/3rds flops.
make a read and roll with it - a min 4bet is alarm bell central we have ~40% equity if his range is AK/QQ+ and there would be 50bb of dead money. over 100times (assuming we push and he calls): we pay 82bb and can net ~120bb(dead money plus the extra left in the stack) we win 40 pots for 4800bb we lose 60 pots for - 4920bb net loss ~1bb/hand. If he's bluffing once in a blue moon and or he has JJ or AQ once in a blue moon it's +EV and a call. If his range here is tighter than AK/QQ+ when he min4bets you then it's a fold. If there is more dead monies it's a snap call. I think I probably fold this at the table - it's a lot of variance - if we play vs this guy often tho the info as to what cards he min 4bets with could prove very useful somewhere down the road - so that info has value - but how much value is a different can of worms. |

He has to be CALLING worse than AKo for you to make money here, and even with the overlay I think its a huge stretch. With no history you cant assume that he's going to be 4betting you light so this move he is making is for value. |

Re: $50 5bet AK?
5betting is awful.
calling is probably bad, too. I fold AK in those spots. |

Re: $50 5bet AK?
This hand is a fold.
I am wondering about leveling here also. How positionally aware are villains at 50nl? I struggle sometimes with this too. |
