All too often when I play no limit hold’em poker online, lately at UWinPoker, I see players shoving all-in pre-flop holding AK or even worse re-raising all-in after a substantial raise.
My problem with this play is that it wrong, at the end of the day the player only has AK and more often than not needs to hit either an Ace or a King to even stand a chance of taking down the pot.
Surely the best scenario when holding those two potentially good starting cards is to at least see the flop then plan your course of action once more cards are laid out on the board.
