Default Re: The Calibre Of Ace-King...? (Suited or Unsuited)

AK is a hand that is very powerful when you are first into the pot. It is also a good re-raising hand. However, there are many times in SNG's where it is proper to fold AK.

FWIW I basically try my best to not call my stack off against a weak tight player with AK since racing PP's will kill you in the long term.

However, broad generalizations are never true in poker so take what I said with a grain of salt I guess. AK is a very tricky hand and must be played in different ways in relation to your stack size/feel for the table.
