Re: Going all in with AKs

The guy directly to my left pushed all in with 5 dollars (3 more to call). I knew it was a coin flip, and I have no discipline, so I called. In the long run that call will have negative EV, so I know I sholudn't have called, but I' m looking for justification, damnit! Is the only circumstance for calling an all in when you KNOW that the person doesn't have a pocket pair (and how could you really know?)
Never, there are just too many situations when I am more likely to win then to risk my stack on a coinflip preflop, especiailly in a ring game.
