AKs on BTN, isolation pot, 3 ways, tough river

I have no idea how fancy people get on nl 100 nowadays, but bb is supposed to lead the flop mainly for value vs the fish. Don't see any alternative to your calls on flop and turn. Nh, if you folded the river. He's never betting worse for value and only halfway reasonable bluffs are gunshots. But I don't see how he's betting this all the way.

Yeah, donk, donk, shove is a very strong line indeed. I agree.

I don't think you're pre-flop sizing is bad in position. Post-flop seems standard until the river. Read less I would fold the river, but it's close. If villian over played hands like AT-AJ I would call with AK.

I would probably raise flop jam turn. Even though it's multiway you have a strong enough hand here I think.

As played I think folding or calling are both ok options here.

Against a competent TAG, this would be a fold like Infreed42 said.

However in this case,

I think calling river is okay just because the villain is not even fully stacked and we allowed him to keep firing without hinderance in other words he could do this with AJ/AT/AQ so that's win for us 2 out of 3 times.

This type of villain is volitile, and I think our hand is better the earlier we get chips in vs this type of opponent. I think in general we are probably beating his range but it'll be a high varience spot once we get to the river. I'd expect the call to probably be +EV but I would also expect to be beat quite alot. I think if we get it in after a flop raise / turn jam we get it in good alot more then calling down a triple.

And yeah against a TAG obviously would be a fold. But we wouldn't often see a flop donk triple barrel from that type of opponent.

It seems fishy, doesn't it? the awkward stack size, and the donkathon seems so needy for cash, these are signs, imo.

Don't you click the spoiler below:

I think we can pretty much discount villain being ok player as theory wise BB donk betting dry Axx flop seems pretty bad idea. Also short stack indicate recreational player.

That doesn't really tell much about postflop tendencies obviously but I think it does increase chance of him overvaluing weaker Ax. We only need to be good 30% of time on river so probably fine to call.

If he had strong hand set 999 or 2 pairs A9, he could check rise flop vs 2. I guest he has A+medium cards and he is trying to force fold.
On the flop - you should rerise him.
On the river - big bet has no sense. With top par + top kicker I would call.
