    Default AKs in SB, 2nd hand of $15k Guarantee

    Literally the 2nd hand of $55 buy in, $15k guarantee.

    I have to 3-bet here I know, but I wonder if it makes sense to fold to the 4-bet from MP1? To me he has to have KK or AA, I suppose QQ isn't out of the question. Or is that just to nitty to even consider?

    I definitely don't mind folding to the 4bet, without reads we have to give him respect for what his hand looks like.

    ak is the most overrated hand in the early levels; i probably smooth call the 60 in hopes to play a small pot.

    dont mind the fold to a 4 bet in this situation considering its tough to get value from ur hand if u do flop an ace or king

    Actually, you don't "have" to 3bet here. as played I would fold to the 4bet, or push. calling is the worst of the options imo.
