So is this what I am supposed to do with AK?

[sixsixtie]

Small blind is 16/14 bb is donkerific. I don't think he has any sort of hand so his push is a moot point.

If BB isn't there, I probably just 4 bet; with BB there I fold.

Edit: In the interest of posting better; I'll elaborate.

Once BB shoves AI, you have $2 invested so far. SB will likely call this unless he was on a total steal. If you shove now, SB's range for calling is something like QQ+, AK, and your AK isn't good against that range. You will be getting even money against that range, and you'll still have to beat BB for the main pot, who likely has a pp.

So I fold here.

Even with my read on the bb getting in practically any 2?

I shove also to get any fold equity against TT/JJ and so im not putting in 1/3 of my stack in PF with AK.

The push is fine, if the BB wasn't there, I'd call this in position

FE? You have no FE; you have to beat BB if SB folds and there is no side pot.

Then that is a great result as I am crushing the BBs range

If BB folds you'll be a 2:1 favorite over BB assuming he really is pushing w/ ATC. I think in reality, he'll show up w/ some pp most of the time.

I think I would fold this.

BB doesn't have much fold equity with the min-4bet so he probably has TT+, AQ+ unless he is tilting or bad.

You need to shove to get SB out of the way or fold. If SB calls your shove you are probably beat but maybe against QQ/AK.

I would just wait for a better spot unless these guys are super aggressive.

[bored]

I haven't done this math in a while.

Given BB will push ATC, SB will push QQ+, AK, and W/O the rake:

EV SB folds: 38.9*.65 - 15.7 = ~ 9.59
EV SB calls: 47.1*.28-15.7 +(74.7*.38 - 37.35) = ~ -11.4

9.59x-11.4(1-x)=0
9.59x-11.4+11.4x=0
9.59x+11.4x=11.4
20.99x=11.4

x=.54

If SB will fold 55% or more of the time, this is +EV. (W/O rake).
