the first Villian was a bad reg, the second one was a fish 38/17.

I don't expect to have that much of FE. It's a nit fold fo sure and I am not the one that's usually folds AK.

I'm pretty sure I can find a better spot to get my money in, so that's my reason for folding here. I am giving up a marginal +EV spot.

I, on the other hand, do believe you have FE vs UTG, who is actually the trouble maker due to the risk aversion. And CO's range we smash. I think he could raise a relatively wide range- 25-30%, but only go broke here with JJ/QQ+. He's bad, so maybe that's AK as well, but not far than this.

I am interested to see how you analyzed the spot(which program did you use).

I think it's ok to shove here tbh.

I use PT ICM, it says it's a shove. But ICM only counts if our villians know about it, what I doubt.

Yeah this fold with AKo seems justified base on what you tell us.

I would push this all day long depending what I know about the reg's opening range from the hijack I might even go as low as shoving low as ATo,AJs,KQs,88+ if he is opening 25-30 % as he mostly fold everything exept the top and we still crush the fish his range. against most regs raising from the hijack I happely get it in with AKo though needs to be really nitty for me to consider folding AKo imo.

Could you explain to me why I am wrong here?

Now, I understand all this! And if you read my comment- you see I would have shoved as well. I didn't say you are wrong
