$2 - $4nl, $200 max buy-in. i've been at the table for about 2 revolutions. folds to drunken i hate money with an $70 stack who makes it $12, fold to me on the button with AKo. i make it $30 to go. sb folds, bb is an old guy and it is his first hand at the table. he says "i raise" and quickly makes it $60. he has exactly $200 and i cover. he looks like a statue and is staring at the middle of the table. instamuck?
what if i had QQ? AKs make a difference?

Very few PPl in live games are aware of position, isolation and 3 bet squeeze play. So if you shove with AK in online aggressive games, you must give this old guy credit and find a fold here.

I might pay this off since it's his first hand. Folding is certainly fine.

yes but have you played live? stacking off just because it's 500 bb effective is a lame reason to shove without thinking.
