Hello,

The following hand caused a pretty big debate at another poker forum, so i thought i'd post it here without the outcome of the hand, and reversing the hero/villain perspective. So, to be clear, you are 'Hero', below, and you are playing against the Villain (preflop raiser)

Background - PartyPoker NL$100, villain is TAG, has shown a wide range of pf raising hands though.

The questions i'm asking is, what hand do you put Villain on, is there any way you can call with AK? What does his betting pattern and size of his bet on the river say about his hand range?
