AK vs pair preflop, do you accept the flip? Discussion
Hello there,
I've been asked a curious question which I don't know the right answer tbh.
I'm going to make very assumptions here which doesn't happen commonly but okay.
For example: You in a 1/2$ cash game, villain opens 6$, you raise to 30$ with our AK combos (AKo and AKs), villain goes all in for 200$ and shows you two Queens saying if you want to, call. What do we do here? Are we suppose to call everytime, if not, how can we say we fold this time but I won't fold that one? What is the profitable play here, should we just flip it always?

Always flip, cause you get back 172 $ ( 43 % of 400 ) and lose on average 28 $ instead of 30 that you would lost if you folded every time, which is 1 bb per hand =100 bb/100 on that decision alone :-)
Also , decision should take rake into account. This holds true if rake is 0.
