Finally, and this is a more general point, I don't think there is any shame in folding up AK against aggression when you are out of position. Yes, it is a lovely hand pre-flop, but when the flop misses, it's Ace-high.

Umm. Folding AK? Getting those odds? It's AK. Why don't you tell OP to fold QQ here too cuz villian might have AA/KK.

No way I'm folding, ever. That's way too weak tight.

I don't think I was clear. Here's the scenario I have in mind. You have AK in EP, and raise. You get re-raised and call. Flop misses you, but you bet anyway. Villain raises all-in... In my mind, this is a pretty easy fold, because unless he's a nutjob with AQ you have between 0 and 6 outs. QQ I go broke every time.

Yeah I thought maybe you meant something else b/c folding PF here is awful.

100% agree with you on folding the flop in that situation. I'm doing the same thing.
