Villain looks solid for NL25, and I get this 5B-Jam. What do we do with QQs?
We need 40% to break even, and Given than he jams AK, AA, KK we literally break even (40% ish).
Vs this type of reg, i think is fine calling, but what about most population in NL25. I think most won't jam with AK 120bb deep when they see a Cold 4Bet OOP.
What do you guys think about it?

I would lean towards fold because don't think they will pure shove AKs in this spot.
It's a 0ev call on gtow. And that's with reg ranges.
I think we can safely ditch it. Who is going to exploit us? UTG is trying to bluff two strong ranges at once.
We need 38% to call ,but its still fold and you should make the cold 4 bet smaller.
Would you still fold it vs. reg population NL25 100bb deep?
Still a fold 100bb deep against a reg utg, its close if btn was the 5betor just because it started with a 3x open so the spr is low. Always a fold 130bb deep at 25nl imo.
