Should I be playing this differen't pre-flop with position? And what's the best post flop move? No reads.

I like to reraise preflop. If MP makes a real raise I will just call, but to a minraise I am making it t150.

[TruFloridaGator]

Yeah I guess I should be raising, especially in position.

Here is my take on the situation. If I call with AK in the early levels (which I rarely do) I'm looking to spike an A or a K against an opponent who I think is raising with a lower A/K. I think I reraise and get ready to fire up another tournament.

Pre-flop I would have reraised to around 160 hoping to isolate down to 1 person or steal some blinds.

[TruFloridaGator]

Yeah, I re-raised &amp; fired up another. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
Ok, I will stop be more aggressive preflop

Thanks guys
