I either push or fold with this at the threes, leaning towards push. As you know at the 3's people do wierd things with bad hands.

i donŽt like calling on this spot, as youŽd be oop after flop and would hit it just 1/3 of times. because of the pot size, youŽd probably have to commit all in on the flop if you hit, but wouldnŽt even be sure if you were ahead.
i think you could either fold or push pf to make villainŽs decision harder if he doesnŽt have AA or KK. anyway, folding is the best decision, imo. itŽs not worth it to get involved in a coinflip or a dominated situation so early. i know these players sometimes make bizarre moves, but iŽd keep my chips safe for further levels.

His bet size is correct here which leads me to think he is not an idiot. However, I don't think you have to worry too much about the cold caller, there is a decent amount of money in the pot and the raiser doesn't have a full stack, and I wouldn't want to get in the habit of folding AK at the 3s. I would push here, but I wouldn't fault you for folding.

Yeah man, gotta shove pf at a 3.40. I used to play AK like this all the time at these limits and it really bit me in the ass. You figure to be ahead of their ranges most of the time here.
