I just clicked that this is genius as I didn't quite understand the problem here, you went all in with AK, but this hand still needs to be made to be good, at best it is coinflip.

AK isnt really that good of a hand, not compared to any pockets, not to speak of the higher pockets like KK, AA etc. AA vs AK is pretty impossible to win unless you hit the flush or something... I hate getting the same hand on 2 tables, it's like it's bound to fail on at least one of them... B/s really

I also dont play the AK very well (like you).. we need to realize that AK is not that good of a hand and it only can be used if you pick something up on the flop!!
------------ I just put AK vs. 22 in an poker odds calculator.. it says 45.2 % vs. 54.8%, I allways thought AK was stronger then this!
The pokersites rigs it so you wont get any freemoney ... all the luck in the freerolls goes to the players who have made previous deposits.
Lol if your being sarcastic this is funny haha.... but yeah, i never deposited once (with my own money anyways) and i won a UKfreeroll 1st on FTP for a sensational $15 But yes $k i feel your pain, i got sucked out yesterday twice in 2 major tournaments, one in the miniFTOPS, flopped my set w/ 88 (after raising pre) and well he rivered his str8, with 79o LOL. Then in the daily dollar i had AQ, i was about average stack with 140 runners or so left. Raise pre, flop is Q93, make a standard cbet he raises me all in, my gut told me to fold, but i was already pot committed, i call hoping for him to show KQ/KJ since hes being playing pretty crazy... he shows Q9, im out.... *scream* lol

I must admit, iv not got a clue what your saying,its like reading a Dr note. But seing a cliff from posters I guess its U had AK on 2 tables and lost. Ohh wow. Now im never going to play again. Kids dont do crack.
I hate A-K hole cards because it looks strong, but the best u have is A high if unimproved. Because of this, I tend to limp in early position with them and do a standard raise in late position. Unless I know villian is a loose maniac, there's not much reason to push preflp with them.

As one good poker player once said, dont play A K agresive becouse its the kind of hand u either loose alot of win small. Just limp and hope u can catch few BBs.
