CO is 47/16/57% AFq ~ 19 hands at this point

Poker Stars $0.10/$0.25 No Limit Hold'em - 5 players

Hero (SB): $24.15
BB: $20.60
UTG: $21.50
CO: $11.55
BTN: $18.40

Pre Flop: ($0.35) Hero is SB with A K
UTG calls $0.25, CO raises to $0.75, 1 fold, Hero raises to $2.25, 2 folds, CO calls $1.50

Flop: ($5.00) 6 2 6 (2 players)
Hero bets $3, CO raises to $9.30 all in, Hero?

This line looks like complete BS to me but IDK.

What hands would pull this? medium PP? A FD? I would think trips, 22 would slowplay a bit.

What's my best line here

Well, you committed yourself by betting $3 on the flop. You've put in almost half his stack. So, you have to call and hope he's playing KQss or something.

So you would have c/f?

I think I like check-and-see. This situation is a problem for me, but as I see it:

* if you bet you're committed;
* his hands you have good equity against aren't calling a bet;
* his hands he's calling a bet with he's right to shove with and you're in a bad spot because of the combination of the above factors.

raise more PF (or just call), makes the hand a ton easier to play

once you bet the flop you dont really have any choice but to call.

Calling pf would be ok OOP, raising more only makes it easier to play because you've committed yourself.
