      Preflop: Hero is SB with A K
      UTG raises to $0.60, MP folds, CO raises to $1.20, BTN calls $1.20, Hero raises to $3.60, 3 folds, BTN raises to $17.70 and is all-in, Hero calls $14.10

      Flop: ($37.40) 7 5 7 (2 players, 1 is all-in)
      Turn: ($37.40) 6 (2 players, 1 is all-in)
      River: ($37.40) 3 (2 players, 1 is all-in)

      Results:
      $37.40 pot ($1.87 rake)
      Final Board: 7 5 7 6 3
      BTN showed Q Q and won $35.53 ($17.83 net)
      Hero mucked A K and lost (-$17.70 net)


      original raiser 33/24/152 CO 20/15/122 BTN 21/16/164

      I planed fold against UTG or CO allin and hoped for someone's call.
      I dislike multiway with this hand.
      Is it fine?

      Hi.

      This is either a squeeze or fold. If you squeeze you should probably stack off. I'm not sure how light the CO is 3betting preflop because you didn't provide any information on that.

      I think it's fine to fold AKo right away here. Assuming he's a 20/15 player he is not going to be 3betting vs UTG light. and vs a strong 3b range, AK is an underdog.

      Thanks.
