I call this raise with AK suited often (with the stack sizes as they are). I don't like pushing into the big stack without a made hand and this is a hand I try to see a cheap flop with. If I miss my hand I can still get away from it, if I make my hand I can check raise this all in EVERY time at this level. Every preflop raiser will continuation bet to my check, without ever putting me on this big of a hand. If I whiff on the flop, I feel I still have a very chance at cashing. I hate busting out with AK to a pair of dueces. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I think my play on the flop and turn was less than optimal.
