[Closed] AK early phase

I would make it 160 pre-flop, but 120 is fine either. on the flop raise in this situation is really good except size of it, which I prefer 420-450 (~3/4 pot size)

although you have TPTK, I admit he would call u pre-flop AQ+, 99+, so there might be some troubles after the flop, and PS actually says not to risk entire tournamet with TPTK, I know it's tough, but that's the way it is.

if it's $1 tournament it is quite good to call this one, cause there are lots of players ready to move in with any Ax

p.s.
don' t post the results, it doesn' t improve anything.

good luck!

looks nh , would go broke as well there

dont post results as you want to know how you played hand & if you won/losed the hand it dont matter

In this spot the buyin is crucial (as well as tournament charakter, reads on bb etc.)

On micro stakes, going broke with TPTK is perfectely fine in this spot.
On higher stakes i like a call down or bets on later streets if he stops fireing more, because people dont go broke on naked pairs so often.

The question is: Will a raise on the flop chase away too many weaker hands which would pay me out on later streets?

yes -> call down
no -> raise
