AKs

Hi,

I don´t like direct shove pre-flop, but you can always make it 8-9$ and then call shove. This would put maximum pressure against BB marginal pp-s and would get rid of his air that often has 35% equity (which he would most likely not going to c/f postflop once hitting tp hand)
Postflop: sometimes slowplay is fine, but since I don´t see players start bluffing you often just give them 2 outs which may cost your stack. I would bet flop 4$, make half pot turn and shove any river.
As played: I like your turn call and I would shove river, since he usually does not have there two pair+ hands, but he would call you down with Ax

best regards,

I don't understand this part, could you elaborate?

BB might often squeeze some suited hand that is not strong enough to call, but has quite a lot of equity against AKs, for example J4s, T6s, Q7s on so on.

For example AKs vs J4s
Hand Equity Wins Ties
AhKh 65.25% 1,112,970 8,668
Js4s 34.75% 590,666 8,668

J4s has quite a lot of equity pre-flop and once he hits his J postflop we can´t get him to fold on JT6 board. So to put more pressure his marginal hands and get him to fold hands that has 30-35% equity I think 4-betting to 8-9$ and calling shove is often the best move with AK:
- we take back initiative and, sometimes get all-in against AQ, see all 5 cards and in the future BB is likely not squeezing that light being afraid you would 4-bet. Also pot is quite big (8.1$) and every time we take that down without seeing flop should be good for our overall win rate.

best regards,
