What do you do in such spot? The opponent is reg and is pretty solid. I don`t see any bluffs, as the UTG opens and MP calls, I squeeze against them which looks also very strong and then the BB 4bets against that. I really expected to see aces or kings so decided to fold. I guess I have blockers against AA and KK but still I don`t what else can I do here. Calling doesn`t seem as a good option as I am OOP and shoving also looks bad to me.

iPoker - ˆ0.50 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by Holdem Manager 3

UTG: ˆ61.23 (122.5 bb)
MP: ˆ21.54 (43.1 bb)
CO: ˆ50.00 (100 bb)
BTN: ˆ86.93 (173.9 bb)
Hero (SB): ˆ50.65 (101.3 bb)
BB: ˆ52.84 (105.7 bb)

Hero posts SB ˆ0.25, BB posts ˆ0.50

Pre Flop: (pot: ˆ0.75) Hero has K♦: A♥:
UTG raises to ˆ1.25, MP calls ˆ1.25, 2 folds, Hero raises to ˆ5.50, BB raises to ˆ12.25, 2 folds, Hero folds

Results: ˆ13.50 pot (ˆ0.00 rake)

BB wins ˆ13.50

Given the positions i think you can fold vs a cold 4bet but it wouldn't surprise if shoving is the better option hopefully there's some better replies than mine to this one.

Seems well played against a 4bet. You are flipping in best case with in mind I don't expect he would 4bet hands like AQ. If you would call you have a hard time playing AK out of position.
