Default Re: Case of checking AK is good?

I haven't read responses...

Is this a good spot to check AK with a bunch of limpers?

You should never check AK. Ever. Not even HU at the FT.

Would you check AA-TT with 3 limpers to you? No... So why would you check AK?

I don't understand what would make you think it's a good idea to check it because there's MORE limpers. You want to isolate with AK just like any other group 1. Allowing more people into the pot means more people are likely to spike two pair on the flop when you make TPTK. That's bad. Dont let the blinds have a free chance to suck out on you. It's a group 1, give it credit.

You got *very* lucky that someone didn't make a set, or two pair. Don't EVER not raise AK again. Play AK the way it should be played, and be happy with the action you get.
