Solid vid. Obviously no situation is the same, but in what situations would u simply flat call a raise pre with AK? Im assuming if a very tight player raises, or mayb if under the gun raises and u are in early position.. I used to never fold AJ in early position or even A10 but after watching many vids on deuces cracked have come to realize these hands dont play as well in early position as i assumed.. A little off topic from this vid but to go with my AK question, in what situations would you flat call a hand like QQ? Hope my questions aren't too off or broad, and thanx in advance..

Any second thought on calling a shove from a fish in this spot? I find that two pair hands (AJ, A8, J8) tend to make up there shoving range more so then weak aces. I still think this is a tricky spot if you get check-raised. Are you folding if you get check raised from a fish? From a reg? Are you pushing against a fish c/r because calling seems bad. This doesn't seem like a spot I'm willing to go broke on but I guess that's all dependent on the opponent.

Why aren't we betting every street? He is likely a fish, and he isn't folding any A or K.
And I think you are giving some people to much credits for hand, example with that AQ versus A4 when we check to river, and just called the raise.

Hey,
Would you want to play AA+KK similar to those hands. I play 10$ 6 max turbos and I feel there are a lot of spots (utg, utg+1) when the blinds are reasonably high, where I like to limp those 2 hands (maybe AKs and QQ as well) . Obviously regs might catch on, but if you are playing aggressive fish is it alright to limp. I am limping kk and aa very frequently and I don't know whether or not I should adjust. If I did adjust I would play it very similar to the hands in the vid
