CRITICAL POINT: I didn’t feel I was going to gain anything raising pre-flop. I would probably win the blinds. I felt like the players in the blinds would stack off with top pair, weak kicker. So I felt like there was more value to limp.

CRITICAL POINT: I just don’t see how I can call here. He is overbetting the pot, there were no possible draws that missed. If he the flush draw he got there. He could have made two pair. I feel that it is correct to lay down my hand.

Raise pf and win the blinds. Wtf???
I dunno about the river. I probably fold cuz I royally [censored] this hand up from the start.

Well, lets start things off in the right direction. That would require you to raise preflop.

wait... what?

Take the blinds. You only have ace high.

Raise preflop ffs. Or you get stacked or no action when you raise AA.

This line is just awful.

Raise PF

As played, fold river... he hit his flush and thought "i have best hand, i bet a billion!"

limping AK in a loose passive game preflop is a good play IN EARLY POSITION, because you don't want a big pot OOP.

In this case it's pretty much murder not to raise. Sure a really bad player stacks off TPNK, but a bad player stacks off with TPTK in a limped pot.
