Re: AllIn preflop post
Playing Ax unimproved postflop has been bugging me for the same reasons. I used to 3bet Ax out of the BB back in my tagfish 3+ AF days, when I was more accustomed to having initiative and more comfortable. I've started calling with it for basically the same reasons Allin talks about in his post (altho I couldnt have explained it so well).
I think this all comes down to Ax UI being a tough hand to play after the flop regardless of whether you have initiative.
About giving up your 35% equity on a KTx 2flush flop, I don't think it "bad" to give it up. You are in a RIO situation = you need more equity to peel, therefore you fold. The whole point of not 3betting pf is that you have the luxury of giving up that equity because the pot is small. I'd much rather do that instead of face a flop raise in a bigger pot, or face a tough turn decision when villian calls my flop c-bet.
