PL200 - AKo BB, 4bet, coldcall, or fold?

CO is a TAGish villain, 12/10/2. Haven't really ever seen him get out line, however, his CO opening standards are realtivly light, however, once played back at he plays very straightforward. Minraising Button is 15/7/1. I haven't seen him showdown a hand yet and I don't remember playing with him in the past, however, I have a significant sum of hands on him. And finally, the coldcalling SB is a 24/9/4, and is a pretty awful player from what I have seen.

Sorry, if this hand is trival or an easy decision, I just wanted to get some peoples thoughts on the best play here. Thanks.

5 folds, CO raises to $7, Button raises to $14, SB calls $13, Hero ??

I think I'd fold here, given all this action and the fact that I'll be OOP post flop against at least 2 players. CO might fold, but button and SB are sticking around regardless, and I'm sure there will be better places to get your money in.

Raise to about $60 (or w/e a full pot bet is), call a push.

Assume we 4bet and only Button calls... How often are we shoving a flop like 1046r? What about (Q or J)63r?

I really hate that spot, and am not sure what the play is there, probably check .... puke ... fold

ps, about time you moved up to 1/2

I would do this some of the time, but mostly I'd just fold.

Is a cold call really so bad here? Odds of us hit a pair are about 32%. We are going to get three callers here most likely and that's 3 to 1 on our money. So can't we just call and play this hand honestly?

By that, I mean, let's just cold call and chuck it if we miss the flop.
