Its not how i play the hand but it isnt a bad way to play the hand. of the 1274 times i've had AK in this database i've pushed it all in 3 times. It has its uses and spots, it has shown a profit.
Open pushing AK is a great way to:
A. Take down the blinds
B. Get called by AA/ KK
C. Maybe get called by a worse PP and flip for your stack
no way are these the only hands that call it by the way, i've been called by much worse aces, by suited kings, by suited QJ. I'm sure once i move out of the micro limits it will be different, but i only play 2/4 and they will call with a ton of junk. The blinds are what you push to take down anyway, any pocket pair doesnt scare me, KK really doesnt scare me either especially if i pushed from late position when all the aces are still alive most likely because people are limping with that junk at the low limits. AA scares me, but I still beat that 13% of the time.
