No read on him I fold. You've dropped .75 on the hand. Why risk almost $20 more?

I actually had a guy raise $10 preflop with A/K last night and then push all-in on a ragged flop. I called and we split the pot. I just felt I had the right read there to make that call though he probably lost it when I called figuring he was beat.

Without a read, easy fold.

E A S Y fold. I wouldn't have even raised, here, with AKo. You're OOP after the flop with the nut-no-pair.

If it is just me and the SB (maybe button), quite a few hands. Anyone else in, just the big 3 (AA/KK/QQ). Position is almost everything. I don't want to invest alot in a hand that I have to act in the dark on the rest of the hand.

Now, I will call small bets on several hands (I posted a starting hand guide I am working on), but if given the choice, I'd rather limp in the SB/BB.

This might work for NL25, where nobody pays attention, but in general it's pretty bad to only raise 3 hands out of the blinds. AK I will often raise, as well as some random crap from time to time.
