I was thinking about this idea and it seems to make more and more sense as I do. Most people on this site are good enough to realize that almost all hands are drawing hands. If AK is a drawing hand then the only non-drawing hands are AA KK and perhaps QQ (this does assume you believe AK to be drawing preflop).

So my thought is to also classify these last 3 hands into the drawing hands category. Don't raise preflop with aces, hit your set and take the other guy's stack. Who would honestly put you on the absolute nuts with no raise. Usually when we get AA or KK, we let the expectations we have of the hand cloud our judgement. We say, okay im holding aces, if I lose this hand I did something wrong....and out comes the monster preflop raise.

I say control this idea and raise aces like you would 8s. No preflop raises with a top 3 hand, hit your set, and take all the chips at the table. Throw in a few hard raises with suited connectors or lower pockets and youre sure to have a table that cant put you on cards.

I was playing with this idea yesterday when I got dealt KK. 2 preflop raisers and I just called. Flop is AK3 (2 cards suited) and they both go all in. One shows AQ other shows AJ with a flush draw. Neither could believe I was holding kings and played it so passively. 2 non-flush cards later, I was $100 richer.

My thoughts, let me know what you think.
