Default Re: AK Hand vs Chief911

[ QUOTE ]
Wow, you guys have way overthought this hand.

Hero has nothing; he should give up.
Chief either has a big hand or a semistrong hand like A8-Weak queen.
It's unlikely that Chief has air.

Can hero move Chief off his hand?

Not if its a big hand
Maybe if its a medium hand
Chief has been building a pot since the flop
Chief has played the hand OOP against EP raiser
Hero has no expectation that Chief will lay down to a big raise.
It's an $11-rebuy and far from the real money.

Certainly not an EV++ opportunity for hero.
Next hand.

I am down with this advice. Making a second, expensive try to blow Chief off the hand just isn't worth it. Representing AA every time you miss with AK is a great way to donk off your chips.
