Preflop sizing with AK vs a bunch of mid stacks
Blinds $1-$2, but game is $2-$100 spread-limit, max you can raise is $100 over the previous bet.
All three villains in this hand have stacks around $150. I cover.
HAND: a couple folds, V1 in EP opens for $15, V2 calls in MP, V3 calls on Button. SB folds.
I have AKo in the Big Blind. What should I raise to?

Normally it should be around 90
However, you're stacks are very shallow so with stacks only 150 you may as well just jam.
Edit: 115
Either bet the max and jam the rest in on the flop, or don't raise at all, and donk-lead $50 into a $60 pot on any ace-high or king-high flop.
Yeah, I’d probably be going 115 in this scenario and would be jamming in NL.

RESULT: I actually 3-bet to just $85 and everyone folded.
