Check/fold AKs in the BB

[BIGRED]

I agree with the posters here. AKs is a raise here, but what about AKo? Do you guys also raise this as readily? For me, AKo is not an automatic raise with so many limpers.

I'll always open-raise with AKo in this instance, regardless of the number of limpers. Depending on the raiser's raising standards, I'd probably be inclined to 3-bet with it, as well.

AKo is a really, really strong hand preflop, and should be played as such.

I think its very important to raise AKo pf in this situation. When you flop an A or K, it often scares all the undercards away if they don't flop a pair or strong draw. You might as well get their money in before the flop and fold them out when you can.

You played it the 'perfect' way i'd like my opponents to play it.
