Default Re: first hand of a sng

Nearly every poker book I've read says that AK is a good raising hand, but not a good calling hand. (And, of course, that in no way means that you never call with it.)

At best you are up against AK, AQ, AJ, or AT--maybe. More likely you are in a race with a PP. And, since you really don't know who you are playing against, it could be KK or AA.

You haven't lost much yet, and you will probably loose more often than not with this hand allin.

I fold here and wait for the guy to do it when I have him dominated.

You have to get to the final table before you can win any money.
