Another common spot with AK

[Profish2285]

Villain is unknown. Maybe I am just running bad but I am really starting to re think this whole 4 bet shoving thing with AK. I just really hate risking 100 bb to win like 14. If I get called Im usually [censored] so it all just seems meh. The problem is, I cant think of any other reasonable line besides folding. Heres the problem: AK is a hand that gains a lot of value from seeing all 5 cards as youre only going to hit a pair on the flop 33% of the time. This is what makes calling bad, being oop magnifies this a ton. I already gave my reasons why shoving is bad imo, its just risking too much to win too little overall. I guess this leaves us with folding, even though that seems weak tight. I mean I would fold JJ or TT in this position as long as villain isnt a hyper aggro monkey so folding here with AK cant be too incorrect. I would love to hear everyones thoughts.
