Re: AKs preflop in aggressive 1/2 6 max
If you figure this guy to be worse than you, take a flop. The more decisions you get to make the more of an edge you have over this jack-hole. Expert NL Holdem is about postflop play. Pushing all your chips in preflop with the top six hands is a strategy for amatauers who are in over their heads; not for students of the game playing against check bombs.

Re: AKs preflop in aggressive 1/2 6 max
but if i just call here then i have to ditch it on 2/3 flops that i miss completely and if i do hit then i will have to commit my chips with TPTK. just seems like a really hard flop to play

Re: AKs preflop in aggressive 1/2 6 max
Stack sizes dictate this 100%. If you both have 200 BB, it's not smart. If one of you has 50 BB, it's an auto-push.
I'm all for saying "stop pushing me around please" with a four bet in general though - not because I'm scared of playing post flop, but because I just want to make him think twice about reraising me. |

Re: AKs preflop in aggressive 1/2 6 max
im assuming that the stack sizes are around the normal 100BB stacks
if this is the case, this looks like a push. calling is ugly with this hand, IMO. reverse implied odds and all that. |
