Playing 5/5 NLHE. I have 1600 in front of me. I have the table covered.
A guy from EP raises to 30 (standard EP raise). Four call.
I get AKo in the SB and debate coming in for a raise. I decide to call being OOP.
Flop is 28Kr. I lead for 100. Everyone folds except the CO who min raises to 200 with another 400 behind. I haven't played with this player much. My first thought is he has a set given the min raise and such a dry board. I fold. Good fold? Why or why not?

What the 3 guys above said is pretty much spot on advice. Folding here is just MUBSY play where you must value the money too much.

Oddhalo & Probono thanks for the advice.
I think the correct advice here is 3B pre. Should I be at all concerned building that big of a pot OOP? But if I am calling off on this flop anyways I would rather put the pressure on.
I did not call off because the player min raising on the dry flop was a very tight / weak player. I did not think he would do this with a hand I had beat. Possibly chopping AK.

If he's weak, he could be doing this with Kx. That's part of the reason he's weak. You're at a minimum getting around 4.5 to 1 on a call to that min-raise. With the strength of your hand, you have to at least call and see what he does on the turn.
That said, you have to 3B pre here. 5 way, first to act, w AKo puts you in a no man's land. Not a good spot to be.

Thanks Arsenal. I think I just need to smash this pre.
