    i hate doing it myself, but i think we should be folding preflop. this guy is only 3betting the nuts. i'd be surprised to see him have worse than QQ+,AK very often. so we probably only have 45% against villain's range at most (if he has JJ sometimes), we are OOP, meaning we need a greater equity advantage to continue than if we were IP. plus we risk domination because our range is capped and villain's isn't. ie we either flop an A or K and get it in vs AK, or flop an A or K and get it in versus a set, or flop air and C/F our equity. and we rarely are able to extract much from villain the times we completely outflop him. preflop i think fold > call > 4b/call > 4b fold. 4b/folding is the last thing i want to be doing with a hand as strong as AKs.

    postflop i guess i just C/C down once we flop an A and only lose to 1 realistic combo and chop with 6. no need to lead out as it may cost us a later street of value from KK/QQ, and we are almost never in great shape vs his continuing range to a lead.
