$.7 NLHE STT: AK in middle position with raise ahead

[sweepnet]

I am trying to get a handle on shoving and calling shoves. I dont think I am shoving enough, and not sure when to start. Also, I call almost never.

I had AK early in the game, so no real stats on anybody. Should I have just shoved instead of flatting, or maybe raised, and that being done, should I have just folded after 2 All Ins, or was the all in fine. It was early, so folding wouldnt have done much harm

The odds of A,K in a three way all in are not very good. I probably would have let it go after the two reraise all ins. It's early. You'll have other opportunites.

Too early to call off your stack IMO. Not in 3 way pot anyway. Like said above there will be other chances.

BTW I think your call PF was fine. Might 3bet there too against the right players. Think depends on table but I may 3 bet more often than not there.

If I 3bet to 520 or so, would I still walk away with the 2 All Ins

Am I the only one who wants to snap this? I mean ultimately it depends on reads and what the payout structure looks like but in a random $0.70 STT people show up with way worse here all the time.

This is the BLT sat. Last 3 get 2.20 entry. Yes, just saw a hand with KK, 99, and 66 all in. Sometimes any pair and any A are all in.

Yeah this is satty and a very easy one to beat. There will be MANY more spots for you to pick up chips. Remember that 3rd pays same as first. Most of the times you will be slightly ahead or flippin against one or both of these players but no need to risk here. Just look for who tightens up on your left when blinds get higher and randomly steal from them as needed to squeeze your way in. I actually won one of these without playing a single hand! These players are almost always playing scared with high blinds.

Never ever a call. 3bet preflop? Not sure of the structure.

Not sure of the structure.

Top three get same prize. Which makes it standard laydown IMO.
