Re: I Play Weak-Tight
Calling down is not terribly bad, I don't think. You probably sacrifice equity when you have the best hand against the MP, but you also save money when you don't. The UTG is supposedly a good player, so if you do have the best hand against him, you probably end up making him fold correctly on the turn/river if he does have AJ/AT, and not AK. If you do in fact raise, you probably are going to end up paying a whole bunch of bets to the MP if he has the best hand whom you are OOP against, also allowing the UTG to get away fairly pain free. The UTG calling out of position w/ AK preflop is not out of the question here, but so is him calling w/AJ, AT here. I think he takes the same line with all these hands.
