#raise at 4BB if first in. #If there are limpers, add a BB for everyone of them. #If there is a bet, triple the amount of the bet, and then add a BB for each limper. #If you are going to bet half or more of your stack, go all-in. | | ---->IF YOU PLAY SMALL STACK!

you need to remember that what ever stratergy you play A K is a drawing hand so yes its good and will beat a lot of other hands but it is still easy to miss the flop and be in a world of hurt Its right to raise with A K and even re raise and i wouldn't even say dont go all in. (easy to give advice that doesn't make sense) Play it different ways to see what is best for disfferent players ie tight aggressive etc.... But it will always be vonrable so dont over play it especialy after the flop, if you dont hit the flop that is Early in a game id just raise but later on say at the bubble id deffo go all in even if you steal the blinds at the later stages of a tour or sng the blinds will be big so it wont go to waste Thats the worst when you min raise and they all fold....GGGggggrrrrrrrrr
