Default Re: AA 5.50 stars

if he doesnt have the flush or the straight you will win the pot... thats why im saying to check it down and try not going broke. a push will only get called by a flush draw or straight or set or 2 pair or straight and flush draw. if he called you pf he hit that flop. just slow it down and see a cheap showdown. if he doesnt have it, you will win anyway and he wont call an all in. on the other hand, if he has it he will call your all in and theres a chance you may get away from the hand with still 500 chips or so which is more than enough at 15/30.

100 raise with AK is good but fold to the raise of 320. 1. you are probably ahead, but you dont know that.
2. you were out of position and cant bet if you miss the flop.
3. he may have you very badly beaten
4. fold and have 1400 chips at 10/20 blinds you will have plenty of other spots to get in as the clear favorite with better hands.
5. you dont need to be playing AK this early out of position facing a 320 raise. you will get much better spots at this level
