    An AK question

    It's been too long but I'm getting time to play poker again, just looking for a bit of a line check here. Villain has just moved to the table so no read.

    Is my 4-bet a bit pointless, call and...

    If you're doing stop-and-go it's a call preflop and then push no matter what the flop is.

    I feel you've just got more options when 8h6h comes up, you can (just about) afford to call and fold, or...

    I've staked someone here once, for a measly $12. I never saw it again. It's the principle not the amount, so thats the last time I'll ever lend money.

    as given, I call, but if really want to win that pot I probably just push on the flop and hope he folds or calls with a worse heart draw. If he has a King, at least I've still got some outs.

    I tend not to play mutli tournaments at the same time, you miss too much information that stops you from finding opportunities against other players.

    Very occasionally I will start 3 or 4 cheap or...

    You don't have much information, but the bet doesn't make a lot of sense, unless he's got trip 8's. I think I'd call it.
    I think with such little info going to the flop you could risk check-raising...

    These are both folds IMO, if you're raising with crap to get the blinds you should be doing it from the cutoff or cutoff-1 at the earliest.

    Lower flushes raise that turn to get value and protect against redraw and nutflush also can raise it to build the pot if money is deep enough.

    Nice representation, but you have to make it $5-$6 if...
