    Default limp reraise?

    Not a big read on villain...seems to be a little Laggy.

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (8 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

    UTG+1 ($25)
    MP1 ($20.80)
    MP2 ($66.15)
    CO ($31.30)
    Button ($3.25)
    Hero ($43)
    BB ($31.15)
    UTG ($32.46)

    Preflop: Hero is SB with A, K. Hero posts a blind of $0.10.
    4 folds, CO calls $0.25, 1 fold, Hero (poster) raises to $0.9, BB calls $0.75, CO raises to $3, Hero calls $2, BB folds.

    Flop: ($7) Q, 6, J (2 players)
    Hero checks, CO bets $5, Hero folds.

    Final Pot: $12

    Thats what I thought...so what do you think of my play then? Do you guys fold AK preflop in these situations?

    Pre-Flop with a Laggy opponent, I probably call this. It is a fold against a tighter opponent.
    I don't like the situation though. Out of position, against a LAG opponent, our hand has to catch something to be made, calling a limp-raise, & a decent 25NL re-raise at that.
    Even when I hit the A or the K I probably play this down cheap fearing AA or KK. Scared is no way to play NL hold'em, so I take the weak route and wait till I'm the aggressor with AK instead of the caller. I give serious consideration to folding pre-flop.

    Post flop you played it fine. You are beat by everything here except AK or a bluff. AA-TT, AQs all beat you here. Fold is good to a stiff bet.

    Standard. Against this kind of LAG villian you described I play it exactly the same.

    If this is the case then this is a clear fold preflop. If you hit an A or K after calling the preflop reraise, you are almost committed to losing a big pot if you are beat.

    LRR can be also done with AK if opponents are capable of folding medium pocket pairs that are a coinflip to AK. If they dont fold 22-QQ to limp-push move, then probably they also get married to other hands like AQ, KQ, AJ that are crushed by AK.

    If one have a read on opponent "not capable of folding AQ-ish type of hands preflop to limp reraiser" then AK is as good as AA/KK.
