First hand w/ AK, facing a 3 bet PF (200bb deep)

I may be sort of rethinking my AK pre-flop play. Given that it's your first hand, you're deep and you know nothing about your opponent, I'd say call in position and see what he does on the flop.

Button is still to act behind you, so you may or may not have position after the flop.

If it were my first hand at the table, I just let it go. If it's a wild and crazy table, you'll know soon enough.

I would just fold and stay out of trouble. Wait until you have at least some reads. Playing AKo for 200 BBs completely blind in this spot can't be profitable.

I def fold w/o a read. Once you know their ranges you can think about pushing, but its not worth it first hand when your 200bbs deep....
