Re: First level of a 215..

I thought the point of AK was to get heads up. You're not likely to get heads up with a bet of 45.

I don't think the point is to try and get it heads up.
I can accept an argument that I should raise a little bit more in order to extract max value. I don't think there's a change in the calling standards of players facing a 45 chip raise vs a 60 chip raise, but I think there likely is with a 45v75 chip raise. And ideally I want AJ, KQ,KJ to call my raise. If my preflop raise is too much, they will simply fold. And picking up the blinds at the 10-15 level isn't a big deal.
That's my longwinded way of saying that I don't think a 3x raise is wrong.
