    Default AK top two call for split?

    donking around at nl50 full ring w a buddy during my "week off poker". last hand at table I decide to get fishy/tricky w AK.

    Plz disregard preflop this is a very bizarre line for me. I thought I'd rep busted clubs and push the river. Then...

    *** RIVER *** [2c Kc 8d 2d] [As]
    Korchnoi: bets $39.50 and is all-in
    Genitruc : hmmm calling for a split sux

    Question is : is this a tough fold, a marginal fold or is it simply an insta-muck? I'm not used to these stakes or this game so I was curious.


    more I look at it more it looks like AA/KK not even close insta-muck.
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    Yeah, that just reeks of a make-up bet because he sucks too much to build a bigger pot.
