I have doubts about my squeeze, maybe I should have made it smaller, to make fold, if the player who opened does push, what do you think.
Or okay, and there was no escape from this hand.

Thank U 4 Posting
AcKc on the button is a 3 bet for value not a squeeze. A squeeze involves getting folds from hands that have more equity than yours by using a third player as leverage. No hand that has more equity than yours is ever folding as you found out. So AcKc is virtually never a squeeze.
Effective stacks are 22 BB's preflop getting all in with AcKc vs standard villain ranges is not a mistake. Only if we knew this villain was incredibly tight could we consider folding. Raising smaller does not clarify our situation as the villain may think they have more fold equity and shove a wider range such as AQs AJs KQs etc. If we fold to that range we are making a serious mistake.
Can shoving be the better option. We know no matter what we are getting all-in with this holding at this stack depth. The question becomes can we add equity to our hand by causing some folds and all-in calls? Would villain fold 66 to a shove? Would they be more likely to get all in with KQs A10s as the shove could be bluffy?
Hope this helps
