11R: AKo Weak Fold?

[RicP]

My main thought was that I could let this go and still outplay the table.

Uhm? you're the shortstack, get those chips in there.

[Pudge714]

This is really bad

I'm not folding this. If CO knows what he's doing you are well ahead of his pushing range here.

Also, how are you going to outplay the table as the shortstack with &lt;6x BB?

[Sh@i'tan]

How can you outplay a table with 6bbs? Call this all day.

Getting into this type of thinking can be detrimental to your game. This is an unexploitable call.

What other hand do you want with 6BB's?

[DeeKay]

I only fold this on days not ending in 'y'. Time for a race. Better than good chance you're dominating.

This would be an example of an AK fold. Your hand is an instacall.

After I stopped chuckling, I realized that you maybe aren't thinking about sng's in the right way. Late in sng's, you outplay the table by pushing, folding, and calling pushes correctly. You outplay the table by making this call right here, right now.
