Default Re: AK suited all-in or fold?

As many people pointed out, your raise was too big. For example, in a tournament if I see someone making a raise like you did I would often read it as meaning that "I do not want to get called (please don't call me) but I'm not willing to risk all my chips by pushing." For this reason, I sometimes will come over the top and push with any two cards because I'm very confident that the initial raiser will fold, thinking that I must have a monster. I'll do this most often if I've seen this player for a while and am confident in his ability to lay down a hand from time to time (some people will never lay down a good hand, and you certainly don't want to do this against them).
