Hero ????

Villain was very aggressive since the beginning of the tourney and had a very weird betting pattern. Would he had done that had he a real hand?

I've seen this extremely aggressive pattern from many players several times during tournaments.

in a freeroll you can shove this preflop but should bet more anyway like 1200-1500

as played on flop its a fold

The Villain does not need much to be ahead of AK. If he has "just a flush draw" then he can easily have 15 outs or more since he has pairing outs. A gutshot may mean 10 outs.

On some boards, you can take a stand with AK unimproved, but coordinated boards are bad for AK.

Board: 9♣ 5♣ 7♦

...........equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 47.103% 46.01% 01.09% 492403 11693.00 { A♠K♠ }
Hand 1: 52.897% 51.80% 01.09% 554401 11693.00 { random }

By contrast:
