You need a default plan for this spot at 10NL vs the average reg. This should be based on the general tendencies of the player pool. Starting off by flatting is pretty sensible until we have some idea how the guy reacts to 3-bets, how wide he opens MP etc. If I did 3-bet my line would certainly be to 3-bet/jam. 3-bet/folding is pretty bad with AK here vs an unknown. Just stick it in now. Not happy at all, but there's too much dead money and your equity vs his range is never going to be terrible. His 4-bet size is absurdly big, probably is very rarely a bluff but w/e we have AK and if he ever does fold we pick up a hell of a lot of dead monies.

Why you has 96BB?

thanx carroters, about the 96bb's since i just had to fresh reset back to factory this morn I didn't have all my setting in place yet

Since im able to play using my pt4 today. I'm going to try and put in 1000 hands.

supposedly my comp should be fixed after wed. dell is sending me a new copy of win8. After which I'm really going to hit the grind heavy. hopefully @ 20nl by Oct.

In my opinion 2 lines possible:ship or fold. But ship is better than fold. You are playing 6max, the dynamics i don´t know very well but people are more agressvely so i opt to ship int his spot because AKo is difficult to play oop if the flop doesn´t help you

Daniel Negreanu: "you want to avoid going allin preflop with AK, it's not that kind of hand".

Most vague misleading statement ever. Not sure what the hell this is meant to mean lol.

Weldphaser " you want to avoid making +EV decisions if a pro says it's ok"

yah i shove and expect it to be close-ish to 0EV with the dead money and our blockers weighting his range more to QQ than KK+ etc etc.
