First level, blinds 50/100. Stack sizes: UTG + 1 has 3000, you have 4500.
UTG + 1 limps. You've only just come to the table and seen one hand which she took at the showdown with a donk/world class call. Suspect donk, even a stopped clock tells the right time twice a day.
You have AK in mid position and jack it up to 550.
Flop comes 779 rainbow.
She bets 550 into pot of 1150.
Do you fold like a girl, call like a fish or raise like a lunatic?

Just fold, you're easily behind and there will be plenty of opportunity to get the chips.
550 is a pretty big raise though isn't it?

I think I probably am behind. I'd like to know to what, though.
The sizeable raise is because it's a donkament and I don't want to be facing 4 post flop. I don't want someone calling with KQ and someone else feeling they're priced in with their connector.

You have AK and dont want calls from KQ?  |

You have AK and dont want calls from KQ? I'm fine with KQ calling me. But too many times in these tournaments a reraise will attract one nutter caller and then a couple more hoping to get paid off with suited connectors. |

u can make several plays here all have merits..if im feeling frisky i call with position and see what she does on the turn..if a blank comes and she checks weakly then ill bet...if shes as inexperienced as indicated and she doesnt have much of a hand shed be hard pushed to fire a 2nd bullett..ive also got overcards i can possibly hit...... maybe even re raise to find out for definate where you are as she may be overvaluing a small pair here ...if shes got a monster ur soon find out !!!.
But folding is good to...depends if youre playing poker and your opponent or playing the cards in front of you
