I'd push preflop for sure, but if I did just call I'd happily get the chips in on this flop except for the action ahead of us. I think we're not winning quite enough to call, so I'd just fold. If MP1 folded though and UTG+1 still bet 511 I'd definitely shove.

I play it the same preflop and fold the flop.

You should have a read on UTG+1...if you called, I hope you at least looked through the HH and see how he got his chips before doing so.

UTG+1 is not our prime concern, it's the reraise we have to be worried about. I fold the flop for sure, but I also raise preflop.

i think i push half the time preflop and call half the time. it deffinatly depends on reads. if u dont have any take ur time bank and look back thru that hh. then you can make a much more educated choice here. on tha flop i think a fold is in order here.

That huge over open is AK a lot. So I call preflop. Once two people are in behind me I just fold.

It really depends on the opponents but I think I would make a gutsy call here. I don't think MP would play a 7 that strong and what is he calling preflop with? I'd put him on AT or something. As for UTG, it takes a lot of balls to call a reraise and someone who calls that, even with AA. He raised preflop so the only really legitimate thing he can have that's an easy call is TT, so I wouldn't be too worried. Depends a lot on the opponents, but against typical opponents I would call.
