    Default another spot with AK

    hadnt seen villain play many hands at this point...and no showdowns. he is "platinum star" status and overall seems tight so far....

    does anyone make this call on the turn? he kinda insta shoved...

    I like to combat his insta-shove here with an insta-fold. I think you played it fine. After 3-betting pre, I don't see what hands he puts in your range that he expects to fold here.

    Easy call. Why fold? Your chances are better
    I think it's a good fold. Lots of 2 pair and st8 possibilites, hard to let AK go but with the insta shove-muck it

    Interesting scenario. I see three or four nut hands here... 3 differant sets and AJ all beating Hero. GF Hero
