Re: Weak or correct cautious?
Hey Swiss-
Sorry. I had no time last night and just shot off a quick (attempted humorous) response.
AKs is a big hand that plays well both short-handed and multi-way. I think sometimes 3-betting pre-flop is fine, but not mandatory as some are implying.
After smooth calling pre-flop, it might seem like check/raising (the flop) would be automatic, but did you at least consider betting out? This pressures the two players between you and the pre-flop raiser while at the same time, possibly forcing others to call two cold on a drawing board. It's tough.
I see your point on the turn and river. It was a tough hand to play and I think you did fine.
I've been playing almost exclusively at Harrah's lately. I must be running good to have avoided you on the one day I didn't play.
