    Default Axs - two pair and a turned draw...

    I often raise Axs pre-flop. Flop I debated raising, but decided to keep quiet. Turn push seemed the obvious thing to do...
    Thoughts?

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (8 handed) Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Pre-flop might be too agro. This has fallen into the "It Depends" area for me.

    If the limper is going to call light and fold air on the flop and you're unlikely to get action behind you, I like the raise. If you had better position I like it too. It really shouldn't be standard.

    Once it comes back around to you on the flop I would just stick it all in because AK might get spooked by the turn card.
