Re: AK hand played strangely; interesting flop action
yea I'm not a fan of preflop for 3 reasons:
a) We crush the initial raiser's opening range and thus he's likely to play with a worse hand (especially when rushing)
a) If we flat, MP is likely to come along, and playing multiway with AK sucks
c) Being OOP blows
Once the flop hits, I'm honestly more scared of MP having a 7 than CO having a 7. MP limp calls and then donks the flop for half pot...that's scary man. That being said, against 2 donks like this I don't mind the crai. It really depends on what you've seen these guys show down with.
If I'm gonna stack off, I might be more inclined to just call the flop and look to crai on the turn. That shove on the flop is pretty intimidating to anything but a 7.
