Hmmm...How About AK with This Much Action

[bluewilde]

All right, I like my PF RR. On the flop I have to decide if someone has JJ or AJ, and if not, I'm committing myself and reraising all-in. Too aggressive? I get called by a weak A (woohoo) and J2 (why are you here?). So I avoided the hands I was worried about but was caught by one I wasn't expecting. If I played it slower, when should/could I have bailed?

hard to get away from this one, pushing is really your only option, seeing as how you're getting all your chips in this pot ... it looks really good for an AK flop ... only hand you can realistically worry about is AJ or a set of Js maybe

You are not getting away from this one. Thankfully it's in the beginning so you haven't wasted too much time! /images/graemlins/grin.gif

Why do you like your PF RR? I personally would have pushed it to 120 or so (115 is a potsized raise I think). I raise to 90 in Level 1 if I'm first to act. After some numbskull has shown interest I begin the punishment!

I raise to t100 preflop. I don't see how you get away from this one, BTW.
