And is raising with AK from the big blind the best choice for all players in all games at all times?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes. Seriously, it is.

Congratulations, you've just given away a good deal of information every time you're in the BB. I'm sure that a game with a bunch of observant pros won't be able to exploit that.

Congradulations, you're wrong. Sure, it might HELP with hand reading I guess but it's surely not an exploitable condition. I'm sure most players are raising plenty of hands from the bb and therefor making himself plenty hard to read.

I don't know what preflop equity is. Is it postflop dependent?

You've been playing too much no-limit.

I know you are some kind of folk hero around here and all but this is starting to get ridculous. How can you survive in a 4 handed game at that limit where 1/2 of the hands are from the blinds? This is insane and the medical side of me thinks maybe its time to lay off the dope.

BINGO

I spent 4 days with Tommy at the Mirage. He's a great guy and a great Coach. As a result of hiring him my winings have gone up substantially and I made the final table of a $1000 Limit HoldEm Tournament. I've been playing for about a year and a half and I highly recommend him. And in a a world filled with assholes he's a great human.

And I watched him for 4 days in person kick ass at the tables. And not in a small way.

By the way, it's unseamly to knock his coaching abilities while promoting you coaching/rakeback deal on this forum.

He didn't say he's folding AK to a raise, he's only calling raises and that he's not raising himself. Do you ever fold AK after the flop in a short handed game? Even if he checks his option he didn't say he never wins with AK. Apparently your claim is that not playing AK as fast as possible from the BB pre-flop dooms one to failure in a short handed limit game? Not disagreeing with you necessarily just wondering if you can elaborate. Perhaps I don't understand your point.

I entered on the big blind and I got the ace-king of hearts. Two players limped, the small blind called, I checked.

I am not good and not smart. Maybe that is why I cannot figure out how this is not awful.
