Hand #5 is a snap shove because you do not want to give the right odds to bring anyone else into the hand and you want to isolate UTG so you are 1 on 1 where you have vastly better odds to win the hand than against 3 or 4 other players.

well I based my read on his play he was earlier when he was a big stack. he played very solid and show down some powerful hands. During that level I was dealt AK 5 times and had shown it down 3 times. I went from the shortest stack to a big stack at my table. His push was weird like it was screaming AA-KK please call me !!!! That was the only time he pushed during our play and i thought risking a third to a solid player was neg ev at the time. Should have called time and evaluated a little more.

Your read may be right but it screams " I am weak, please do not call" to me. If he wanted action he would probably have raised less. A raise of 2 to 3x the BB is more scary to me from a solid UTG player than a push fwiw.

I cant decide if folding AK or the format of this post was worst.

you need to look at your stack size when 3-betting.

In one hand you 3-bet like 1/3 of your stack with KK. This is screaming huge strength and will fold out way more hands than you want. Either trap and flat call, or push.

Another hand you do the same with AK, but you are out of position, just push this pre-flop as well, make usre you seel all 5 cards and remove the disadvantage of playing OOP, you also fold out some lower pairs maybe. Otherwise you wind up OOP with a pot the same size as your stack. Unless you are planning on pushing 100% of flops this is bad.
