AKo Preflop - Conventional wisdom is wrong.

I think the flaw in my logic is that I have far less negative implied odds with AK than most players. AK has a ton of negative implied odds for most players, since they marry their tptk.

If you aren't good at getting away from tptk, then you shoulden't play it multi-way. As such, a big pfr might be needed. If you are good at getting away from tptk, then you can play it multi-way.

Really... I'll post some hands that I got stacked with AK in a multi-way pot. You tell me if you'd get away from the hand? Sound good? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I had one last night that I raised decent size with AKs got 3 callers. Flop came KK5... looks good to me, but unfortunetly someone flopped a boat. Almost lost my whole stack, but I smelled boat on the turn.
