Default 2.25, a good spot to go broke or double up on?

its very unlikely to see AK from opponets here becuae there was no pf raise, unless someone limped in and hit a set i should be good?

This is read dependent. I would guess you're ahead most of the time. You'll see Kx, sometimes A6, A4, or other crazy [censored]. Once the donk minraises, shove or fold. If you feel you're good then shove over him on the flop. I don't like to go broke in limped pots with just tp, but I guess at a 2.25 this isn't horrible.

i would generally just stick it in on the flop; these guys could have anything, namely a worse king or worse pair, and theyre probably going to stack off with whatever they're raising on the flop with. As played though, I actually like the line at this buy in level.

If my math is right, you'd be pushing t2290 into a t860 pot, which seems a bit much. I'd r/r about pot size, though, and push the turn.

My bad, I thought we were shorter. Nicely played just calling the flop with the intention of building a big pot on the turn.
