was my fold here correct? Im not so sure and thats why im posting here and not in hand analysis .
overall , how do you suggest playing AK in blind vs blind without a specific read ?
I mean, here the villain didnt have the stats of a fish so I was kinda afraid to commit with this hand.
this is 10nl BTW

PokerStars - $0.10 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

MP: 209.6 BB (VPIP: 35.29, PFR: 1.18, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, hands: 86)
CO: 100.6 BB (VPIP: 21.02, PFR: 19.74, 3Bet Preflop: 7.47, Hands: 568)
BTN: 116.8 BB (VPIP: 32.95, PFR: 20.45, 3Bet Preflop: 8.33, Hands: 94)
Hero (SB): 117.9 BB
BB: 101.5 BB (VPIP: 30.77, PFR: 17.09, 3Bet Preflop: 2.50, Hands: 118)
UTG: 100 BB (VPIP: 17.24, PFR: 13.49, 3Bet Preflop: 2.32, Hands: 901)

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has K:heart: A:diamond:

fold, fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, BB raises to 9 BB, Hero raises to 25 BB, BB raises to 101.5 BB and is all-in, fold

BB wins 50 BB

Be interested to here some thoughts on this hand too.
Do u have any history with this player?
Me personally I would probably call because I think in this spot AK is still beating a lot of his hands.

You can't 4bet/fold AK. Call 3bet and see the flop.

it's just because I know that in these spots people 3 bet light .
however a 5 bet shove usually isn't a hand I'm favorite against (TT+..).
then again I'm not sure if a call here is a + or - EV

I didn't have any recent hand that could lead to this shove from him .

btw recently moved from 5nl to 10nl and noticed a lot more 4 betting, and lately I don't tempt to overplay AK
just because I had some bad losses with them

Sir, I dont want to call all-in with AK, I want to be the one making the all-in.

Why not 4bet/ fold AK? I don't know if folding here was correct, but this is definitely a coin flip so it is better to fold, but that's what i think..

If you believe it's a flip, its an auto-call due to the dead money in the pot.
