Re: 4 hands, 3 big slicks, 10th place
I'm too lazy to read all the posts. Here are my thoughts.
It's extremely important that when you play AK, you do one of two things. First, if you don't raise enough preflop (like you did), you need to know that you have to let it go if you get too much action. Next, my advice is to raise more preflop so that you can help narrow down the types of hands that will call your preflop raise. IMO, I'd rather win the t25 in level one than lose my whole stack.
Further more, last AK. Come on. Have patience. Let the hand come to you. This isn't a fold AA preflop hand. AK is still a drawing hand. I can't tell you how often people make the mistake of not allowing the other guys battle it out, while you bide ur time. Your objective is not to knock everyone out. Your objective is to place ITM and hopefully win. The only time I care about knocking people out is HU.
Good luck at the tables.
