It is a tricky hand, that can cause a lot of problems. As usual, it plays better in position. And if you are really deep you should be carefull with it.

Question is 44 a premium hand?.....if your answer in no then neither is AK, suited or unsuited. Why? 44 heads up beats AK on average over 52% of the time.
------------ Then again stats show that if you want to avoid getting on a plane with a bomb on it, your best chance is to take one on board yourself - the chances of their being TWO bombs on the same plane at the same time are practically Zilch

Its a really tricky hand, many people see AK and goes All In, remember even 2-2 can beat you if you dont see and ace or a king on the flop, turn and river. Many people think, Ace king, I made my hand.. Im unbeatable And thats so not true...

Love that bomb analergy. I must admit AK always do well for me, but im happy to fold them to the right oppoinent so dont lose much with them. But am more than happy to remove all Js from the pack.

even though id like to hold AK i often feel like "oh oh now im in trouble". so i have no problem folding this hand after flop if someone pushes real hard. dont know exactly, but i think my win/loss ratio with this hand is 50/50. good hand to have anyways.

i would rather have a AK then AA or KK,because with AK u can get out of the way cheaply, preflop or on the flop and with big Pairs AA through QQ and JJ u feel u have 2 sit the ride out untill the river. tink ur playin ur AK wrong, or ar just not hittin ur flops, But Ak a trash hand never.
