x and y have been playing tight, z isn't a good player but station rather than lunatic, and a in the sb is a complete lunatic.

So do you put the lot in the middle here with AK? (I have just over £4)

All the action so far suggests you're behind and at best you're going to be racing and at worst totally dominated.

Right now you'd be racing for £2.97 for a put in of £2.67 so fairly abysmal pot odds when u pretty much know you're behind.

Even with implied odds (based on 2 more callers) you're looking at putting in another £3.56 to win a maiximum of £7.53 so 2.12:1 pot odds which is very close to how your hand would play against 1 player if both your cards are live, but against 3 players your winning percentage will be much lower, in this spot probably 30% or potentially alot less if AA or KK is out.

I think the right paly here is a fold.

By way of example, if you're against pocket 8's (initial raise), A10 (caller) and pocket Q's (shove) in a 4 way race you're only 27.77% to win the hand.
