Do you ever reraise )not all in) w/ AK?

[AceofSpades]

Does anybody make a reraise with AK that is not all in?

If so what are your reasons?

Uh, yeah. If I have 100 bbs and my opponent has a similar stack, a reraise to 100 is absurdly terrible. He will only call with a better hand, and fold worse ones. Reraising all in with AK with very deep stacks can be terrible.

A lot of times when I could reraise allin 10x the original raise with AK, I make a smaller reraise. I don't want people to read me for AK. The smaller raise looks more like aces or kings rather than an ace and a king. If I get reraised, I call. If I get called, I push the flop.

With deep money, it is kind of standard to either flat call or make a big raise and try to take the pot.

alright i agree w/ betgo [i]this[/i[ time. If i have more than 10x the bet, then i have enough room to not go allin, thogh w/ AK typically i'd push even w/ a bit more than 10x the bet.
