    Default AKo vs. donk-betting laggtard

    Villain is 80/13/2.5 over 110 hands and I was thrilled to see the seat to his left open up. He always buys in short and plays almost every hand, but he is capable of folding after the flop. Cards have been hitting me in the face since I sat down, I think I raised 8 out of 10 hands in the first orbit and stacked villain a few hands earlier when he raised pre-flop from the CO with Q7s, I re-raised with KK and he pushed all-in.

    What's your play here?

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (10 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    BB ($25.70)
    UTG ($18.60)
    Hero ($65.70)
    UTG+2 ($50.60)
    MP1 ($48.55)
    MP2 ($77.94)
    MP3 ($48)
    CO ($46.50)
    Button ($20.15)
    SB ($70.30)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with A, K. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
    UTG calls $0.50, Hero raises to $2.5, 8 folds, UTG calls $2.

    Flop: ($5.75) 6, J, 2 (2 players)
    UTG bets $6.67, Hero ???

    just fold

    If you were deep and his bet were more like 3-4 then you could raise and pick this one up. As it is he has committed himself with a hand that likely beats yours (probably 33-55, 77-88), and he isn't folding to a raise.

    EDIT: I am still thinking about this one. The above response is basically assuming he's an unknown. Considering how loose he is, he very well could have total air here, and a call or a push isn't too bad.

    Do you want to gamble here?

    All-in and fold are the only reasonable lines IMHO. I've done both in spots like this.
