Re: AA hand, UGLY flop, perplexing river
It's really not the pre-flop re-raise I'm going to question here, but the flop play. Were you worried about a check-raise? If I'm last to act with the Aces down and it checks to me, I'm going to...

Re: Easy lay down?
I've been in this exact same position (except it was tens down with a 789 on the board). With a bet and a raise, it's a really tough call to make, though you have an overpair, OESD, and backdoor...

Re: Good articles on playing AKs and AKo
If he flat calls and I miss, I'm going to have to see how the action on the flop goes.
If he bets into me decently, I'll likely lay it down. If he checks, I'll either check behind if I respect...

Re: Good articles on playing AKs and AKo
I actually DON'T like to get all-in at all with AK unless I've seen a good flop, but if it's going to happen, it's one of the four best starting hands in hold'em, so if there's going to be one to get...

Re: help with ak and top two
Okay, even if you're against a set of ANY of those cards, you have outs. If it's the lower sets, an ace (or in the case of the sixes, an ace OR a king) gives you a better full house. If it's aces,...

Indeed, especially since the original poster said the guy was likely to call any PF raise with just an ace.

If you had him stacked by at least double and layed this down, I'm sorry, but...

With AKo, the way I play it that gets me the most consistent (winning) results is as follows. N.B.: Play assumes five or more players with average stacks for the blinds/antes.
