Would you call flop with this also against pot bet?
Is shoving turn an option here? If yes, which combo from suited AK is best for shoving?
Is shoving river an option here as played?

Not 4bet-calling pre with AKs 75bb deep seems extremely nitty for me. Though I suppose call has some good sides. But if you ever have 4bet-fold range then please 4bet-call this always. If you want to trap play use pockets for it.

On flop I would sigh fold versus pot. Any normal cbet we have to call and that is sort of problem with calling AK pre. On most flops we are good enough to continue but getting forced out of best hand has high risk on later streets.

On turn I would probably have no shoving range versus that sizing. So raising small is good with this one.

On river we have half pot and this small donk bet looks lot like blocker. I would shove for value.

Not sure if you have any info on the villain in this hand, but most of the time I would 4bet to like 400 with the intention to stack off. Flop call seems reasonable on a half pot Cbet and on the river I would consider shoving. I expect if he had a better hand he would or shove the turn or shove the river for value and not making a smallish block bet like now.

Cheers,

I can assure you that AK is my standart 4bet, but to be sure I dont remember exactly why I just called here. I tend to 4bet shove because when I do non-all in bluff 4-bet and get called, it is really hard to play post-flop with low Ax for example. Do you think it is wrong?

You should not really have 4bet shove range this deep. We simply risk too much meaning that we need premium hand to shove. Main point of small 4bet is that we can add those occasional weaker hands and likely get more action when we do have value hand. Sizing wise around 340 would be my default.

Playing that weaker part is usually not super hard as you have premium hands to protect your range and often crappy Ax bluff hand is in low equity spots. Hitting e.g. Axx flop with weak Ax I would often play passively and use it more as bluff catcher. I think more tricky spots can come with these AK type hands when we dont improve but nut high can still be somewhat strong on certain boards.
