Poker Stars $0.10/$0.25 No Limit Hold'em - 6 players -

Hero (BB): $25.00
UTG: $30.27
MP: $27.00
CO: $25.91- LAG - 37/27/8 ~1300 hands
BTN: $25.95
SB: $29.68 - TAG 22/16 ~200hands

Pre Flop: ($0.35) Hero is BB with A :club: K :heart:
2 folds, CO raises to $0.50, BTN raises to $2.25, 1 fold, Hero raises to $4, 1 fold, BTN calls $1.75

I think normal c4b/c its -EV, because there will have villiands very strong 5bet range. So I thinking about call or c4b/f. I dont want go c4b/f with bigger sizing on this I have worse hands. I go click c4b/f because I want izolate with SB and get his range wide (ideal is all his 3bet range..).

I dont want play much AKo oop in 3Bp vs two regs, esp vs LAG in pot, also dont know how I should react if I call PF, and LAG it 4bet it...

Flop: ($8.60) 4 :club: 4 :diamond: 6 :heart: (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN checks

Turn: ($8.60) 5 :heart: (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN checks

River: ($8.60) 8 :diamond: (2 players)

Hey HHHuBi,

Usually the cold4b/call line works better either with some sort of dynamic or at higher limits where guys will play less tightly vs cold 4bets.

Ironically cold-4betting against many opponents at this limit basically just becomes an overpowered bluff. Cold 4betting will definitely be +EV but there is always the possibility that cold-4b/fold has a higher EV than cold-4b/call. In which case we might aswell just be flatting AK and 4betting something like KQ or AJs with intention to fold to jam. (The only difference is that AK has slightly better blockers).

So while playing OOP in a multi-way pot with AKo is not ideal, it can sometimes be the best out of a selection of bad scenarios.
