How does being all-in change your probability of an A or a K comming by the river? That just doesnt make sense. I think Phil Hellmuth's is like the only thing I have read which states that AK is better than QQ. I will take QQ any day. You have a made hand. Unlike the Ak that is drawing out. I always look at AK about the same way as I do TT. But thats me and not you.
How the hell can you play AKs the same way as TT, thats just stupid. TT isnt even an excellent pocket pair, and most of the time the board is going to hit an overcard which somebody is bound to have.
