I would of shoved it. At best you would of seen PP.. How were they playing loose, or tight???? Now if they were tight, or loose i would of shoved with AK..
You have to learn, to make calls. At this point they are just trying to stay in it, it is at this point to were you have to pick them off, to make it in the money.. It was a Real bad fold IMO. |

c/o was an easy call, its the SB that poses a slight worry. Best case scenario is that he fancies his average hand against a desperate players all-in, so wants to single him out. Need a bit more history to tell if its as cut-and-dried as that though.
Really, your only worried about a high PP, and even so, your a coin flip at worst unless your against bullets. Conclusion? Shove em in. A fold here shows a player attempting to limp into the cash, not make the final table. Play it to win. |

re: AKos poker
It's rarely a big mistake to fold AK. Unless you're 150BB deep or something, AK is dominated so rarely that it's usually worth a call, especially against 2 players.
Oh and in a tournament, never fold AK preflop except in specific bubble/weird payout structure situations. |
