Call and see a flop?

Bill, that advice is a little too radical. AK is the same as AA and should be treated like it. Sorry. But hey, the walk back to Houston ain't so bad. Does get a little thirsty though.

I like waiting for a better spot than a coin flip.

a coin flip seems excellent with money already in the pot. But maybe you have to forsake such +EV live since you cant rebuy 5-10 times.

um some drunk guy pulls a major squeeze after op makes a weak raise to 3bb utg. why do you nits all think a coinflip is the best we can hope for? he's drunk, he's a maniac, he isn't folding, i'm makgin it 1k to go, getting it heads up, and committing my chips to this hand. but i like walking to houston too i guess.

Maybe I've been playing too many sit and gos lately, but this seems like a nice spot for an all-in. You're OOP so hoping to hit the flop is a bad call, there's a significant chance you've got the best hand and can either take down a decent pot now or get a drunken call with great equity, and when you're behind it's not by much. If some drunk maniac picks up AA or KK when I get AK, oh well. Rebuy.
