hmm I will have to disagree and re-agree, i have learned that due to my success lately at owning poker like theres no tomorrow this week alone i produced two nice FTed out of 5 MTT's i played. I found that the reason i did so well if the fact that im fearless, im not afraid to go all in if I think i have the best hand. Most pros will go all in with AK as well i've heard Chris (jesus) F. says that he is willing to take AK vs AA lol, or so apparently i've heard. In my opinion im willing to lose with AK if you got a better hand because if you run into AA or KK thats just plainly unlucky, and AK running into AA is no difference than your pair losing to a lower set. It happens. I never once regret my moves i make. But AK is only good if you hit sometimes, but you'll find out that a lot of people are willing to push all in with AJ or AQ, so i like my AK suited.

Now for the part i agree. I hope above i have showed you why i disagree, but i agree if you have a nice stack and your up against a CL. Then i will never play AK against that man.

Example: If i got 10k in chips and hes got 12k and the next highest is around 4k, theres no way in hell im risking all my chips against a CL when i got a nice stack right now with AK. He must be thinking the same way with his 12k stack against my 10k stack so i have to put him on a better hand. But if somoeone has the 4k stack im willing to take em out with AK, i just wont go all in with someone who has more chips than me because than i know hes gotta have a better hand, and im just asking for a beating.

To the End!
