50NL - I open push 100 bets with AK all day
I strongly believe that pushing AK preflop is a profitable play at these stakes for one solid reason. There are not enough thinking, adjusting opponents at this level. Because of this, the range of hands that call a preflop push for 100 bets is wider than most would have you believe.
Heres the breakdown as I see it: 90% of the time the push goes uncontested 10% of the time, I get a call: -1% of that is AA/KK -5% is pocket pairs -4% is two faces (Ax,KQ,JK,..) Anyone casually watching the table will take notice of when a full buy-in gets shoved into the middle. The natural reaction seems to be "What a donkey". This allows me to extract more postflop. If my AK gets showed down there is another benefit. I feel like I can freely open push with AA and KK with the same calling range. Take a minute to think about that. I'm look forward to any thoughts! |

yea, i think you are right, this is slightly +EV
I think this would work at nl100 also |

I think they should make 26 person tables for people like this.

Yes yes yes, trying to make it as serious as possible in order to get solid answers. I definitely didn't go into this without expecting empty responses, so I will try to continue to keep making reasonable posts.
Since the numbers I've crunched up seem to put me in +EV territory, I started some testing. Its a small sample size, but I dont expect the BB/100 to change by much continuing this. Here is my before: Here is my after: So, please...let me hear some thoughts on this. Do you think its -----EV, +++++EV, +Ev, -EV, 0EV. It would help if I saw some other's AK stats too (with hopefully a bigger sample size). |
