This looked like a squeeze to me (he was in the BB). So I raised to prevent the others from calling (had a guy at my direct left who covered me for 200bb) and hopefully get this guy to fold. I thought my 4bet would look very strong (I sat utg+1). I guess call would have been better but then I could be oop with 3-4 people in the pot with no clue where I´m at. And at this spot and in this level I cant fold AK ever. To push for 200bb after a 3bet with 20bb also feels like -EV. Its a weird spot!
If I can get "AK pre is da nutz" out of my head (can that really be correct against most people?) I guess I could fold but I feel FI could have a wide range when he first raised but that narrowed down when he just called pre (after a 20 sec tank) with 1/3 of his stack.
In the future I guess I will try to avoid this kind of situation and just call his raise and then play the flop if I hit big time.
There's no way this is a fold unless the opponent is doesn't know wtf a squeeze is.
Need reads as far as post flop goes, but I guess it's most often a fold since you don't really have odds if he does this with any pair/decent draw (gutshot or better)
