I almost always just call if facing an EP min raise. I just refuse to put a large % of my stack in preflop with AKo in a sit and go format where I have such a huge edge in many other areas of the game.

Calling preflop is clearly +ev anyway and much less variance. Also it's very deceptive as if they have AQ or AJ and an ace flops, they stand to lose a lot of chips.

it does keep volatility down - which is a plus for experienced players that can play well after the flop. it may be a negative for inexperienced player/or those who can't play well after the flop (me) because when we get big starting hands we are looking to increase volatility to accumulate chips, for better or worse. any thoughts?
