Default Re: Don\'t raise AK preflop, ever acceptable?

lol, this thread is so funny...

Seriously, I agree with the big Hombre there.
AK is a good hand. In fact it is a great hand if you know how to hide the fact that you are holding exactly that.
And I also prefer to do it by making the same preflop play with AK as I do with AA/KK/QQ all the way up to 3 betting it. Then I will consider where I stand. It serves well to mask your 3 betrange if you are willing to be very agressive with AK.

If someone claims they can tell when someone has AK based on preflop plays, my hat is off to you. Especially if you can do it online. Usually when you call down the preflop raise and c-bet you are in quite deep if you find out it was not AK, but instead a big pair.
