Probably fold there. 2 all-ins. JJ/QQ/KK/AA/AK all possibilities.

Then again I run bad regardless.

Can i just say that when you raise EXACTLY 3x the BB in this case, its like tattooing AK on your forehead. UNLESS you always raise the same.

I mean, i was reading the start of ur post and you said the BB was 160 and you raised 480 and before the card smileys loaded, in my head i said "AK".

a re-raise of a big raise is either high pockets or an isolation bet by the bigger stack. Either way he wanted you to fold.

Fold. Not to two all ins. Although this is online, in a 3.30 KO. Possible call sometimes.

100% fold why would any one think of calling?
AK is a drawing hand 2 3 has the same odds of hitting.

odds of hitting, and odds of winning are two different things

with AK, if you hit you always have the best possible single pair hand, which in most showdowns is good enough

i also like AK because its a lot easier to fold post flop than KK or AA when the board is dangerous, even if you have hit

you are also 50% or better against every hand except aces and kings.

gimme AK over JJ or 1010 (and probably QQ) any day of the week.
