Default Re: over playing AK

I'll try and help you out here.

You probably do overplay AK, I do too. One thing I've just started realising is that I cont bet AK, then sometimes *call* minraises!! That is so dumb because I am probably drawing dead... If he calls the flop (instead of raising).. DO NOT fire the second barrel without the stellar read, it doesn't work often enough - he is as married to the money in the pot as you are and will call down with 2nd pair.

Also, don't fall in love just because it's suited.

lately, i have been palying AK, i guess too aggressively, i make it a priority to isolate 1 player so that my AKo or AKs have a better chance, however, i think i am over playing this and making raises that are too large.. i guess.
(assume that i position.. i try not to be too invested when i have bad position)

is my thinking wrong on playing AK??
