Urgh.  I think it is difficult to find a fold here as you have so much equity against the two pair hands and other aces and enough equity versus the flushes and sets.  You are also in fantastic shape against hands like AxQd or even Qd with random blanks .  My biggest worry would be that there are likely to be plenty of blockers out there.  I am not sufficiently well versed in ICM to know whether that might be a factor in folding here.....I suppose the biggest factor really is whether you are deep enough, with a sufficient structure and have a big enough edge to find better spots.  There aren't many better spots than this though normally.  Get it in.

Re raise pre?

Yepo definitely this.  Don't forget against two pair hands you still have other outs but if you are sure that you are up againstflush you can fold because you don't have enough outs.  Really I would probably only count,say, seven outs anyway as yolu are very likely to be up against some blockers.

Don't think so. I'm gunna assume that they're both terrible since the bet sizing in this hand is lol from start to finish

I think leozzy has a hand like QQ w/Qd. I think the only better made hand that he shows up with is AJ which we have 12 outs against anyway. The guy that overcalls can very easily have Ax with worse diamonds or maybe no diamonds.

Really can't see me folding this

Looking at the maths there is 54747 in the pot and its 27796 to call so we're getting 1.96 to 1 so we need ~33.5%

Against AJ and AxQd you're 42%
Against a set and a worse Ax you're 29%
Against Ax and a flush you're 28%

There are just too many combos of Ax that fish aren't folding with or without diamonds for us to be able to fold imo

Never 3betting pre and not C-betting.  Not sure I understand you not wanting to play a big pot.  It is in your interests to make the pot big enough to be comfortable stacking off when you hit the flop.  When the pot remains small then this happens and you are left with tough decisions.  If you 3bet pre to ,say, 8k and get one caller then there is 20k or so in the pot so when they then shove on this flop they are stacking off with a wider range and your call is easy.  Not sure I have explained this well.  Do you get what I mean???

Depends on the flop really.  I c-bet almost every flop but b/f on say a Q83 flop but if I have any part of it i b/c and that includes flops like QTx and even low paired boards like 338 probably unless I am up against a total nit.

yeh +1 to all those saying 3b/call or 3b/ bet/call most/all flops.

About your flop decision, I had to recheck all the details to make sure I was missing anything crucial like it was a WSOP satellite bubble or something.

[X] AK
[X] Top pair, Toppest Kicker
[X] Nut flush draw
[X] A whole bunch of chips in the middle and two choices
[ ] Ever Folding

If we 3 bet pre and utg jams his AK does he get JJ to fold?

We call utg's jam tho after JJ folds!!

3 bet pre imo, then no need to ever think about folding the flop.
