4bet shoving is to much. Calling in position is fine, but in most cases I like to 4bet to 400 and call a 5bet shove.

Yep 4bet-call pre. Thing with AK is that you tend to get good amount of folds versus active 3betting guys (not bad deal) and hand get lot of value from being able to see all 5 board cards.

In deeper stack situation you might not want to stack off even in late positions but with 75bb and low ICM it's pretty standard situation .

lets say I 4bet to 400 and he calls. Dont I commit myself with a cbet?

yes

if I commit myself anyway why do you raise then?

You don't need to go quite 400 when 4betting. My sizing versus reggy player would be more like 350.

In 4bet pots with these stacks we can also go for really small cbets. After all we are repping lot of strength and stacks are shallow. But also one thing to point out is that not many regs are willing to call preflop versus 4bet oop in this spot. It's often fold or shove.

If it goes for postflop then stack depth and flop define situation and yes there can be gray areas with hand like AK. But if we have actual 4bet bluff hand like occasional A5s or KJo then it's often more clear. Or if we have one of big pockets that are good portion of our range.

PS: So if we 4bet shove we kind of have to have premium hand but if we make small 4bet we can widen that range bit more. At least versus reggy player.
