Question: Is a 3 Bet better than calling from BB with AKo with 1 raise and 1 call ?

Yes. You have a raise for pure value, doesn't matter if they call or fold.

Easy 3bet preflop. I would make it somewhere around 0.25 (3.5x CO raise + SB call amount).

Postflop is how I would have played it.

Edit: I believe that an acceptable 3bet range VS CO is around 5% (TT, AJs, KQs, AQo).

I agree. Would rather 3bet this hand, but nothing wrong with calling, either. Postflop is fine imo.

Definitely raise this hand for value. I would prefer to play this hand against fewer opponents, as your chances of winning decrease with more people in the pot. Hence 3-betting is the optimal play here.

Thanks guys

It's not big of a sin to overcall but when it's suited and when you have position. AKs plays very well mw

We definitely squeeze for value here.

It is a sin to overbet when you miss a perfect chance to put a pressure and squeeze for value. This hand is in top 3% of hands and should be squeezed.

Overbet or overcall? And sometimes it's not nitrol!

Overcall. In this particular case it is a sin. CO+SB... Good wide ranges...

I didnt say that in this particular case it's not a sin. I said when is good to overcall with AK. Read carefully.

You should read carefully. After I wrote that in this particular case it is a sin, you said it is not. It is a sin not to attack those wide ranges.
There are rare cases that you would like to overcall.

Postflop ok. Not squeezing this is bad.

No you should read carefully. I said sometimes is not

In these positions it is a sin not to squeeze, man. Every aspect is crying for a squeeze. You have late positions, CO is tight, SB is more loose - THIS IS A SQUEZE ALL DAY LONG! No need to discuss it more.

Of course we raise with both AKs and AKo for value. The only difference is that with AKs we don't really mind that much if a bunch of people call, whereas for AKo we want it heads up. Not raising AKs is just bad.
