 uhhh fourbetting is retarded here. I may just fold IMO but i'd say probably
Fold>Call>Raise

It's rare u want to fourbet intending to fold to a shove.
Check out the new blog!!!

Why not call the 24 and see a flop. You give away little about your hand and at the end of the day AK isn't worth much unless you hit something.

Does his reraise mean he definitely has AA/KK. If so then it's an easy fold but if he's more likely to trap call with those hands then presumbably you have to call (though I wouldn't fancy it much)

Still I don't play at 200NL so maybe I have a lot to learn about 4-betting preflop.
"[This theory] is only useful for helping to calculate your luck odds. If you have a good read that you have a numerical advantage against your opponent, that your hand is "luckier"..."

if ur doing it for info, then i think it's better to just 4bet to 50.
otherwise, id either comitt with a raise to ~70 or flat out push, or just cold call.

actually folding is probably the best like ISF said, since u dont have reads and the action is utg, (tight) utg+1 with u oop.
but in a game with lots of reraises, 4betting or calling is a good play.

Don't 4-bet and see a flop or 4-bet bigger so you are priced in to call.
