Hey,
any thoughts on this final table hand? How would you have played Seat 6 after the standard 4bb open?
I would usually never fold AK preflop with a 20bb stack.. but that 8bb raise from Seat 3 , and the insta-shove from Seat 4 really make me question this spot, especially when considering final table ICM.
