Re: 109: early AK hand
easy call in most games. the fact is i think the better players are likely betting this flop with a draw, he underraised the preflop bet and then pushes when he makes a flush hoping you will call when he should bet less? i am calling here and expect to see a pair like TT of JJ or, ugh, AQ.
the potential problem though is that he could interpret your check and then flat call as having a draw (of course you wouldnt call for 150 with just a draw getting just over 2-1 with one card to come would you?). so if this is the case then you are dead.
i would call, grit my teeth and hope i am not shown AQ.
