5bet shove

Blinds: $0.05/$0.10 (6 Players) CO: $10.00
BN: $23.62
SB: $10.00 (Hero)
BB: $8.75
UTG: $12.78
MP: $20.35
CO is 32/26/2 0% 3bet & flatted vs 3bets with AKs, 99 after 85hands
BTN is 36/32 22% 3bet after 50hands

I think my cold 4bet size is too small here and should be minimum 25bb?

What range do you assign for villains 5bet shove?
Preflop ($0.15) Hero is SB with K A
2 folds, CO raises to $0.30, BN raises to $0.75, Hero raises to $2.30, BB folds, CO raises to $10.00 and is all in

I'm expecting the CO to have KK+, AK on this one.
At best we are splitting so I guess it's a fold.

Thanks for the reply. What sizing would you recommend my the cold 4bet?

In game i thought it was close, and wasn’t sure of the action i chose.

I think the size is fine. Maybe could do 21bb since BU 3bet is small imo. He did 7.5bb for a 3bb open raise. I would do 3x (9bb). For 9bb, OOP, I reckon 23bb is okay. Happy to change sizings given a good argument to do it :)

Fold seems fine. It sucks that we invested so much money in the pot and have to fold now though. But our cold 4-bet here is against 2 uncapped ranges so percieved as strong. It seems likely that CO is nitty if we saw him flat AKs vs a 3-bet and has a low 3-bet %. And he is also jamming here against 2 uncapped ranges.

I'm not folding, we are bluffing with AK then when we 4bet. I had to do the math and it seems you guys are right.

Correct me if I'm wrong, pot is $13 and we have to call $7.7, so we need 59% equity to break even. Against AK, JJ+ we have just 40%. Is that the way it works, or do we need to consider the final pot size? If so, it's a clear call against that range.

Regarding counting pot odds:
Think about artificial example where the pot is 1$ and you need to call 1$. Do you need to win this 100% of the time or 50% of the time? Then after analyzing that come back to original pot :)

Regarding call/fold:
Why did you say that we are bluffing? Also I am not sure if I would say that CO has JJ,QQ here. But if you are looking at it only equity wise and assume that villain pushes AK then AK has 37% vs KK+,AK, still quite good :) Question is if he has AK here when he has 3bet% at 2% (am I reading this correctly?) and been seen flatting AK to 3bet previously.

What I meant is if you are going to fold to the jam wouldn't it be better to do that with AJ or A5, for example? I mean, it's a difficult spot, we don't want to cold call but once we 4bet my automatic response is calling the shove, what Im realising here is that maybe that's a mistake.

On the other hand, we have 85 hands on the player, I don't think we can know anything reliable about his 5bet shoving range with 85 hands.
