Players who cannot fold A-K preflop deep in the WSOP ME?

AK off ranks 12th statistically when played heads-up against the deck. That is to say that the following hands are ahead, albeit slightly as the list proceeds, in a toss...AA, KK, QQ, JJ, TT, 99, 88, AKs, 77, AQs, AJs.

my worst nightmare is being called by AQ when I have AK

Kneel, AQs. Big difference there.

HE still had enough fold equity to make the AK shove good. He probably gets folds form pairs JJ and down, and obviously wins the pot right there vs AQ and down.

This thread shows exactly why tourneys are so profitable.

ok, what do you lot say to this AK laydown? I wasnt sure at teh time. (cant remember exact blinds/stacks, but I was either commiting or mucking.

Late in wsop event 38 (i think); $1500 NLH. Down to about 500 from 2800 starters; about 280 or whatever get paid. I have an average stack on the button.

Slightly loose UTG w smallish stack raises; then seemingly tight young guy in MP w big stack RR's. MP doesnt know UTG is loose; I know 'cos loosie and I recently got moved from a different table, but he's actually folded all previous hands at this new table. Folded to me. I mulled a bit and mucked. very likely no FE vs shortie and I'm a bit worried about MP possible holding.

With a smaller stack, I prolly go with it, since I'd need to move, but an average stack I decided to let it go and wait for a different spot. I was flip-flopping and second guessing myself tho.

This hand could go either way. Really depends on the blinds at this stage of the tournament.

Anyways, this is different because the raise came from UTG and a call of a UTG from MP. The other one was a steal attempt from a big stack. The re-raise with AK was standard here since it is way ahead of a steal range.

This post gives me hope that poker will always be hugely profitable.

the trick to threads like this is they have to be posted when the good posters are off in other forums, leaving this one simmering in its own idiocy.

in other words, you ran into a forum 3 bet son
