At party í'm just calling AK preflop at this stage. At stars i suppose it's good to raise, but jees, just call his reraise. What hands are you going to be called by, that you're beating?

What about the times that the flop comes 3 unders and I'm against 4 opponents and have to check-fold?

As microbet says, just because you only get called by hands that beat you, sometimes you also get some of those hands that beat you to fold.

What about those times? You've still got a stack of 1320, and it's the very beginning of the tourney, nothing you die from.

Pushing preflop because you're scared of postflop play sounds bad to me. In this case i really think you should move to Party, post-flop play is non existant over there.

I've been toying with plays like this. Even if they're not optimal from an ROI perspective, they might increase $$/hr.

There is a huge difference between "post flop play" and "post flop play against 4 opponents with AK offsuit". If they were suited I would be happier about playing it multiway.

I would usually just call and play postflop, but there are a lot of chips out there (However I almost always just call in this spot). Also you don't list the buyin...
