oop against 4 people and having the preflop aggressor directly to your left. We have no read on anybody, what are we doing when the flop comes AJ4 we bet everyone calls, turn comes blank, we lead it, then someone raises. We are we now? What are we doing when the flop comes T and under. We don't even have a chance of having a flush draw and if your opponents are smart(big assumption) (if we check) they can destroy our odds. Basically, if we don't take the initiative it will be easier to let go of AK when we should, and can bloat the pot when we hit our hand becauses of our position to the pfr.
