    Default $11/180, do people fold AK?

    I had been pretty active from CO and CO+1 in the last few orbits. Original shover had very solid stats and probably knows I have been raising wide. BB also had very solid numbers.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (9 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    MP2 (t7248)
    MP3 (t6080)
    Hero (t3799)
    Button (t2460)
    SB (t7460)
    BB (t3963)
    UTG (t3375)
    UTG+1 (t3215)
    MP1 (t2010)

    Preflop: Hero is CO with K, A.
    5 folds, Hero raises to t600, Button raises to t2460, 1 fold, BB raises to t3963, Hero ....

    You can call here given the price you are getting if you want to gamble. Its fine against ranges like 22+,A9s+,KTs+,A8o+,KJo+ (BU), and 88+, AJs, AJo+ (BB) and those ranges might be too tight.

    That being said, I fold here because of your read. I think BB is showing up with QQ+ and AK too often here for you to call. You still have 16xbb and time to pick a better spot where you are better than 30% to win. I do not think there is anything wrong with passing up a marginally +EV spot for a better one later, but I'm sure lots of folks would disagree with me
