AK off getting 4bet OOP

Posted 9 years ago

How do you play here? seems like kind of tight, can i 5 bet and fold to shove ? seems fishy... or call 4 bet OOP miss and fold?

Help me out here whats the best line, i guess i could just call given the deepstackness.

I would call the 4bet and see a flop. Getting it in at this stack depth would be thin at best and re-opening the action to potentially fold a hand with decent equity isn't very attractive. You can still be ahead of 4bet bluffs or chopping with other AK so I think saying call oop miss and fold is a little pessimistic. You're also getting great odds to see a flop since his 4bet was relatively small.

You can't 5 bet and fold to a shove, never do that with AK as you'll be losing too much money.

Do you have any reads on villain that would help us make our mind. Personally I'm going to be shoving here 125bb deep with AK. I've not played 100nl for over a year but if the games were like they were last year they are super aggressive and I don't think it's that thin at all.

@Harvie the hand is 138.5bb deep, do you still like getting it in? I don't actually know the exact spot where I draw the line between getting AK in and not, but this seems close to it. I definitely don't like it at 150bb without a lot of info on villain. I'm still moderately happy shipping it 125bb deep as well.

I guess taking the Call for a flop would have been best here, but i do think i am splitting against AK or facing KK or AA, would he really 4 bet QQ here beeing this deep, atleast i dont think so.

Could be a 4 bet bluff sometimes given the fact that it looks like im just squeezing, but then again he's also raising UTG+1 wich makes it less likely he is bluffing.

I dont hate folding here.
