Preflop is OK. You don't want to play AK out of position in a multiway pot. You are the big stack, so raising to either take it down now, or get heads up with the lead is fine by me.

On the flop, you've whiffed and the way I see it you have 2 legitimate options.

A) check/fold to his overbet
B) lead out on the flop for something like half the pot, then fold to his jam.

Think to yourself: what is his jamming range on this flop? probably a pair. Maybe AK. So if we put his range at 55+ and AK you only have 19% equity vs. that range. If you think he'll do that with AQ then that brings your equity up to 31% which is still not even close enough to call a bigger than pot sized bet.

In fact, to make that call here you have to believe that he'll jam with 55+ and AK,AQ,AJ and KQ and even then it is just barely a break even call.

The only way this call is really profitable is if you think he WON'T jam with any of his sets and WILL jam as a bluff with hands as weak as AT or KJ.

Just let it go. sometimes we end up folding the best hand here, but not very often.

Its very big size 3bet, 12bb enough, what not be tied in preflop when +50BB.

In flop pot already big, so we must bet, 30% pot bet enough, if villain shove we can fold and not to lose the most part stack..

I personally think, that in pre-flop

1. You either make a call or
2. Do 3-bet, but not that much


Then, the all-in of the opponent clearly indicates about pocket pairs or top pair. Maybe you felt that, but due to big pre-flop re-raise, you were unable to fold psychologically.

I think you call very fast here.

Take time and think why he over bets here.

Its one thing to talk about but not many people will fold AK suited to a jam which looks like a bluff and even if he had 99 you had some outs so i guess its a ok play

 

[kefir]

Fold the flop.

From the stats on villain you posted he is kind of loose passive, so if he shows so much aggression, then he must have at least a pair.

 

[darreneliascoach]

prefer not to bluff against loose players

This one is easy,the pot odd is already against you,

so it should be an easy fold on the flop.Raise pre is fine.
