Default Re: Party $20+2: AKs first hand - Do we gamble?

not sure about your initial raise, i probably make it like 120-150 there, but once BB pushes, I'm calling. to whoever talked [censored] above about not taking a coinflip -- even if this was a coinflip, taking a coinflip while being laid very good odds is playing intelligent poker, not gambling (at least not in the long run).

Stop raising 1/4 of your stack and you won't have this problem. Also, there's nothing wrong with raising AKs knowing you will get three callers. If you don't know what to do when you miss, quit poker; if you don't know what to do when you hit, only playing some more will teach you. So basically, make it t75 or maybe 100, then, like, make up your mind what to do from there (hint: if KK pushed, you'd still call.)
