Re: Laying down AK in a tournament from a Poker Pro Magazine Article
 

I read this and thought it was an instacall.

In a tournament of this structure, the blinds go up so fast that you have to be more inclined to take coin flips and gamble more than usual if you want to win.

The average stack is in pushbot mode, so they're coming at you with a huge range of hands. AK is well ahead of that range and is an easy call.

Just one man's opinion. Oh, i love the internet. Nothing like getting flamed by a disgruntled young man who wishes he could lash out like this to REAL people. But that would be scary. Good luck with your poker. And I hope you get over whatever is bothering you. i mean that.
