Default Re: Fold AK UTG?

Well yes, there are hands I will call with that I would fold to a bigger raise. The odds are better, and I would expect to win it often when I miss. But it doesn't matter anyway. A min raise is unlikely to get you position seeing the flop. That's what matters, at least to me. So many better things can happen when you limp.

Do you agree that open minraising narrows the field more than limping? It clearly puts a lot more pressure on the blinds.

In my experience, a lot of people facing a preflop min raise treat it as a limp.

I don't treat it as a limp, and I think to do so is a clear mistake, as much as treating it as a 3 BB raise. I've seen it pick up the blinds many times. If people will call with every hand worth a limp, that is an exploitable mistake, which actually argues for minraising.
