Is this an impulsive all-in play with TPTK??

villain is unknown, only 15 hands logged in my PO database.
after reviewing my game, i figure that my AK play wss so bad that only better hands caled and the worse hands folded in this situation.
also,i want to hear about any thoughts regarding how to play AK in the reraised pot preflop and how to continue after the flop. :?

well he has AA or he doesn't

I don't mind it, he could stack of with AQ I guess and you beat everything else but AA

if i had more hands logged in my database, it would be much better though

His range of hand here..JJ QQ KK AA AK AQ, right? unless he's a super LAG and re raises with small pocket pairs.

the stack-a-donk line is typically misused.

It's better on flops that are easily floated.

i wouldn't call a flop containing an Ace floatable

how do you guys think about preflop min reraise by this villain? would you like to reraise back or just flat call with AK out of position?
any thoughts :roll:

i had an ace and a king, so the likelihood that villain had AA or KK should be less, right? In pokerstars 1-2 nl cash games, people usually reraise BIG with AA or KK. However, i still wouldn't reraise my AK against unknown villain.
Actually, i was very happy to see an ace on the flop coz i knew i was far way ahead at that point. so checking OOP was definitely the right play :o
