    I was wondering how you play AK normally and how you play UG, BB, SB, Button and out of position. Does it very by situation? Or do you stick to your normal plan?

    For me it varies by situation and who folds or doesnt before it gets to my position. You know how it goes Robert, if there's a player who always folds unless hes got pockets, then I will probably fold... if there's only players in there who play loose then I'll probably raise. I wont play any hand a certain way. Just my 2 cents.

    For me, it totally depends on the table dynamics. I'm more likely to raise if I'm in the blinds than if I'm in position... unless I'm trying to isolate a given player. But, depending on the circumstances, I could raise, flat or fold.

    Raise or Re-raise enough to try to take it pre-flop. Bet like aces on the flop and then give it up
