So you're four betting small with AK? What do you do when your opponent calls and you whiff the flop?

With 100BB stacks, what kind of poker do you play?

But the other guy is in the same boat, so I'll just assume we have an edge (I realize this might not be the case, but I can't assume that villain is a better player than us or everything would change from the start).

I should also add that it's currently uncommon for these bets to get called, so usually we're put to a call/fold decision preflop.

I kind of feel like you're gearing up towards a call/shove non-AK flop strategy for villain?

The fact that there is confusion about defense to small 4 bets. Supports small 4 bets.

small 4 bets allow you to bluff more and have a wide range doing them. the opponent gets no drawing odds anyway, so this style might be a little more flexible than making it 150 or sth everytime.

OP, you don't understand the strategy behind smaller 4bets yet you have figured out how to "own" the people playing this style...sounds like you might just be clicking buttons on your computer.

LOL at "owning" small 4bettors. in general, small 4bets are superior to pot 4bets. it's math.
