Default Here\'s one for yah to chew on. Preflop fold.

Party 15-30 good but not great game.

TAG (18/10/1.8) raises UTG, Tight (17/6/1.3) player three bets UTG+1, folded to me in MP and I have AKo.

I fold.

Comments? Yeah, the skirt is a little short.

I think AK can still be played profitably here, but you won't go broke folding either.

Good fold. You're usually behind and these types of players usually aren't going to pay you off much if you outflop them.

reverse implied odds against tight/good players (assuming they're at least decent postflop). easy fold.

"are you folding jj here as well?"

JJ is closer than you might think and TT is a fold.

I chatted with someone I really respect last night and he asked the same question about KK. I told him I play KK there but seriously consider folding QQ, but probably play it as well,(against my better judgement) JJ I fold there against those 2 guys.

Its just one of those rare time I actually folded AK and didnt lose sleep over it.
