Re: preflop checkie cause i have lost every pot in the last 7 days,
[ QUOTE ]
I do it because if somebody's 3-betting me light I like to 4-bet light. But since a push and a pot comitting 4-bet are often interpreted the same way, when I'm 4-betting light I like to risk the minimum instead of pushing as I think it's just as effective. But obviously if I do that, I have to play AK/AA the same way.

for 5k stacks, making it 2k and then folding with small unpaired cards is a mistake if he ever 5bets with unpaired hands other than ak. for 6k stacks its still a very thin fold (especially if you're saying part of the justification for 4betting small and calling with ak is that you might get him to shove a worse hand).
i shove here because i prefer to shove rather than 4bet and fold with my light 4bets. make the stacks 150BB or more and i think 4betting with room to fold becomes a better play.
