What do you do vs a min-5bet? Can I call, here, should I jam?
Folding is not an option because the odds are too good, I would assume?

Pacific Poker - $0.02 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BTN: 107 BB
SB: 64 BB
BB: 45.5 BB
UTG: 131.5 BB
Hero (MP): 105 BB
CO: 110.5 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has A♦ K♠

fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, fold, BTN raises to 10 BB, fold, fold, Hero raises to 24 BB, BTN raises to 51 BB, Hero ???

A bit early to jam, but as the saying goes, "If it is going in by the river anyway, might as well get it in now"
(I've no idea who said that)
Against AA you're 6%
vs KK your 30%
vs any other pair 45%
vs any other hand you're a favourite

If you jam, he ain't folding
If you open-jam OTF he ain't folding
If you fold here, you just chucked 27 BB away -- but it's your last chance
Would you ever fold the flop here?

Any stats on the opponent?

Interesting spot, I'm curious to read what the real experts think though...

Depends what range you give villain ? with no fold equity and 18% raw equity if you put them on KK+ which is more than likely some players only do this with AA.It's not often you see players do this with worse than KK so it's definitely a spot you can make an exploitable fold vs the 5bet size imo.

Player was unknown. HUD is not working on that site.

You dont really need a hud to figure a range out here you'll just run in to this line from time to time and realise it's massively weighted to AA maybe KK. And on rare occasions some other stuff but rare occasions dont come around often enough imho.

Against unknown I would have called the 10BB to see what can be extracted from the flop, or not.
On this level I've seen some weird hands being raised or called allin, just today and A8s on a Kxx board with maybe hope on a backdoor flush while in the pot are 16ct before the allin.
