Re: AKo in BB.
[ QUOTE ]
do you usually limp in with AKo from the bb?

You mean check? Not usually, but if there is already 3 people in the pot, sure. I don't wanna play a pot out of position with just A high.

a pansy sized 3 bet on the flop.

Was trying to lock people in for more money. I still figured I was ahead. If the turn blanks I can just push and probably still get a call from a flush draw. With a bigger bet, I might push the flush draw out.

Just curious, why do you wait for the turn to push?
[/ QUOTE ]
I'm not entirely sure. I think I just figured I needed to slow down. On the turn, I didn't want to check-raise all in and shut out the action for the flush draw. I just open-pushed hoping to get the flush draw in for his whole stack and at least give me a shot at coming out ahead in the hand. It's not exactly a grand play, but whatever.
