First of all, I dont play DoNs. I play them when the traffic is low on my regular tables (6max/9man). When I raised/called AKs in this spot, the reg who pushed, started saying that I am a fish, etc.... To me this was a clear raise/call spot and I would do that with AQ too. To him this was a clear fold and suggested to me to look up whats ICM. (lol)

So was this the correct play and what range should I raise/call in similar situations.

P.S. This is an 8man table, so 4 get paid.

AJ+ 88+

you have low risk-aversion because you are the chip leader. You can get an exact answer with an ICM calculator (SnG wizard).

Look at his 3bet range A7o (lol). This is very wide like 35% of hands. AKs has enough equity vs that range to raise/call.

This reg doesn't know what he's talking about.

well played
