Default AKs vs preflop raise and 3bet 200 NL

This got messy. Original raiser was about 22/16. SB was about 30/19 and seemed donkish. Ive seen him raise pre and call 3b preflop w k6s. Dont know anything about his reraising range.

Party Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $1/$2 Blinds - 5 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

SB: $666.85
Hero (BB): $199.50
UTG: $219.25
CO: $201.30
BTN: $84.10

Preflop: Hero is dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (5 Players)
<font color="red">UTG raises to $8.00</font>, 2 folds, <font color="red">SB raises to $26.00</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $70.00</font>, UTG folds, SB calls $44.00

Flop: ($148) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
SB checks, <font color="red"> Hero checks ?

Comments on preflop too please...

I don't like shoving pf as your usually only getting looked up by QQ+. I don't mind the pf bet if you are prepared to fold to an allin. On the otherhand if you are committed to getting it in pre then make it larger. That's a horrible flop so check/folding is the way to go and be happy you saved yourself some money by not going ai pf.

So if you four bet any Ax suited would you have odds to call also? What would be more profitable long term... calling the ai 4bet, as you would have odds to call or folding to a 4bet? Folding obviously has the advantage of lower variance. Personally I raise to around 70 like this but I will fold to an ai as i am usually shown AA/KK.

I agree with Silent that if you're going to 4 bet this hand that you should just shove it. Does anyone here like just a call, or even a fold?

at 200nl i treat AK like the nuts. maybe its a leak. at 100nl i dont mind folding readless to a raise,3bet. with villains with these kind of aggro stats im generally not ever folding coz their 3betting ranges are pretty wide. if i 3bet Ax im calling a push aswell yes. And i hate a call when OOP for the rest of the hand.
