    Default AK at a Loose Table

    I raised it 3x + 1 due to the loose players. I didn't mind a call but I didn't want everybody and their brother playing along. Allmoney has been playing loose and raising his draws with pot sized bets and then showing his hand after people fold. What does he have? What should I do?

    PokerStars Game #3113250240: Tournament #15015730, Hold'em No Limit - Level VI
    (100/200) - 2005/11/20 - 20:31:38 (ET)

    The "oh crap he's bluffing" is ringing through your head huh? You need a pretty good read here that he actually is bluffing to do anything, and if you are gonna play with the bet made and the stacks you two have left, the only real play is to push... I would fold here.

    I was thinking push or fold. Thanks Chard.

    Yeah push or fold depending on your read. Often this will be a middle pair 66-99 looking to get you to define your hand. But with stacks not being too deep, I would only expect a call of your all in if you're beat
    Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

    I push here. The guy bet enough so he can fold here and still be okay chip wise. Granted I have been trapped by people who make this play with the Jack, but I do believe you put someone with a pair of 6-9's to the test and may get them to fold.

    That's what I thought too so I pushed and he called. He had something similar to 69 accept the nine was a little lower. Don't want to make this a bad beat story. So nough said. I was happy with my push and read. I was almost right.
