Default Re: AK 2nd hand of a 50 on FullTilt

that was my first instinct to for a couple reason. 1) its 2nd hand so all the total donks are still in which IMO lowers his range of hands. 2) I raised first hand so he may trying to protect AQ 3) I doubt I'm worse than a coinflip and I might have some fold equity here.

but I called and missed flop and check-folded. any other help welcome.

I think thats one of the reasons I would push since I wouldnt necessarily want to play that hand out of position against someone I have never played against. Arent AQ,KQ,KJ, etc. likely holdings?
