Theoretical question about playing AK against typical opponents
Suppose I'm playing in a tournament, there are 9 players at my table, including myself, and I have A-K. A player directly across from me opens up with what I know to be a weaker unsuited ace. Since this is theoretical, I also know that another ace will come on the flop, but I don't know what other cards will come. Would I have a higher EV from simply calling preflop and slowplaying/check-raising on the flop than I would with reraising preflop and betting the flop?

well if he calls your reraise preflop, then the flop is going to help him.. so he'll probably call/raiseo n the flop and you'll get even more.
So definitely if you reraise preflop. |
