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

If the game is loose, I would just raise a bit more as a standard raise.

Also, then you can stop c-betting with AK in a loose game with many pf limp-callers. Only bet if you have TPTK+ or a good draw (would be flush in this case). In a loose preflop game you can play the flop "fit or fold" if you get enough callers, since with two callers you do win often enough just by hitting the flop TPTK. In a heads up pot hand you could not do that since you only hit the flop about once in three times. I mean if you know for a fact that the opponents will call with anything (medium pair+) on the flop, you should not bet with air.
