History this session: 2nd time we've 4bet him OOP with AK, he's showndown 54o in a raised pot vs our 88 on A5x5x board and his 3betting range is polarized. we've probably folded twice to his 3-bets.

His flop bet size is so sick.

I'm trying to wrap my head around if you're committed to a flop shove.

Flop is so dry, why aren't you leading?

edit: as played, i fold. But why are you 4 betting if you're not going to lead this flop?

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

Deanglow is on a distinguished road
 Kel never folds 1010 here, and maybe not AK. c/f is ok

Renton will become famous soon enough
 i think the 4-bet preflop is overplaying your hand vs him. He doesn't 3-bet very lightly at all. I'd probably just call and play poker.

Postflop is fine and standard.

That's not really true, I've got a decent sample in my database and he will 3bet light but not with a retarded range.

That leaves us with a problem though because he's not really calling our 4bets that light and we're turning AK into a bluff by 4betting here when if he shoves we're looking at splitting, flipping, or being dominated.

If we called what boards are we checkraising? any? BTW, this is the first time he's made it 52 fwiw, all the others were 48.

 i consider it a mistake to 4bet/fold this hand.

since i am not folding once i 4bet, i do not like a 4bet since keli will likely profit in these positions against AK when it is the bottom of my value 4betting range.
