In this situation are you looking to get it all-in on the flop? Are you putting them on aces anytime if they make any certain plays and laying down, or are you always calling down? I'm sure a lot of you re-raise more preflop, so tell me why you think you would do this...

How about right now?
The reason I am bringing these up is because I think there has to be some flawed thinking in these forums. I feel like in todays game auto-pushing KK might not be so right preflop, because the only thing anyone will push with is AA. All of these players simply call AK, and very few are raising all-in with QQ(and you can obviously tell who would raise with QQ with reads). Does anyone agree somewhat with this kind've thinking?
