Default AKo at live 1/2 NL

Mirage 1/2, effective stacks about $200

I've played 1 hand with villain: 2 limpers, I complete in the SB, BB checks. 554 flop checked around, 4th player bets pot on a J turn, villain and BB call, villain bets pot on an 8 river and shows KK and loses to BB's 67.

anyways, here's my hand. I'll present it street by street for fun

I get black AKo UTG+1 and raise to 10. Villain raises to 25 from MP. My action?

80. Call push.

Reasoning: Villain's clearly a donk, so who knows what he has. Plus there's a chance he's steaming from losing w/ KK.

He seems pretty bad and passive. I'd probably lead here, around 35 or so. He seems bad enough that he'd call you down with a pocket pair, and passive enough that he probably wouldn't bet it each street if checked to.

ok, I check called this street (he only bet $20), then led blank turns and rivers for about 1/3 pot each. my reasoning was the same as yours

reraise to 75+ and call a push. Who wants to play OOP against a guy who does very strange lines?
I'm assuming your ahead now as he was slow with his KK hand. However, it's not impossible he has something good as he is responding to a pot that has already been raised here.
Altogether, I love just 4-betting like AK is the nuts. I've been told I overplay AK though.
