I now fold AK a lot pf.
I used to find it very hard to lay down AK. Not anymore. And rarely do I regret folding it when I do.

Re: I now fold AK a lot pf.
I'm rarely calling an all-in with AK, but I am definitely getting myself AI with it quite often.
One thing that has definitely changed though is preflop play with it I am far more willing to simply call as opposed to "AK? RAISE, RAISE, RAISE!" |

I would have busted out both times if I had called. I love AK with a deep stack. But when stacks are tight, yet the table is still full, I'm wary of it. I'm quite willing to shove with it myself, but when someone shoves in front of me, I'll take any excuse to fold it. |

Re: I now fold AK a lot pf.
My rule with AK: I won't risk my tournament life with it if I have a decent stack and someone infront has wen't all-in..
I will however always call a raise with it and see a flop, only way I lay it down is raise-re-raise from tight players I definitely don't raise a raiser, always just call and I can either outplay him or he can outplay me on the flop.. no re-raising with non-made hands |

There are times when i won't re-raise with it.. especially early on when i awnt to keep the pot small.. but later on you definitely can/should 3 bet with it, with a few exceptions. |

[/ QUOTE ] ya I guess, I'm kind of an advocate of HOH (Though not in a robotic sense), but I think since that's where I learned almost all of my play, I tend to just call after a raise (Against tight players if I forgot to add.. against people who have been playing like over 20% of hands, I'll throw in a raise) |

It is made if he has AQ. Don't just make these ridiculous rules that are supposed to cover every situation. If the money is deep and I have position, I may just call, but I'm usually reraising it preflop. If the stacks are short, im looking to get all in with it. |
