Default Re: Is it OK to fold here

Ed's talking about multiway pots with marginal hands.

He's not talking about hands that are heads up, capped pre-flop.

Is it possible you're ahead? Sure. If you call down heads up evevrytime it's possible that you're ahead, you're going to lose a lot of money.

If this was even three handed it's an easy call. It's not, though, it's heads up.

Saying you've been shown AK lots of times has nothing to do with if this call is +EV or not.

Given the information provided it seems pretty clearly EV to me. Your ratinale for it being +EV seems to consist of "I've seen lots of people play AK like this".

Make an argument based on the information you have. Convince me.
