Oh, I know. I'm pretty damned discipline if I may say so myself. It's CERTAINLY not hard to fold AK if you miss the flop. Any poker player who has an ounce of knowledge of what's going on would fold it any time. I even fold A(10,J,Q,K) if I'm ON A DRAW...depending on the situation though. Depending on the kind of read I'm getting. I'm not saying I'm the greatest (although I do come pretty close to it

), it's just not a hard laydown.
What I meant by Anna Kournikova/big slick being a bitch sometimes was someone (usually a shortstack) going all-in with AK (even suited at times!!! lol) not catching anything and having their opponent pair up or something. For some reason, whenever I need AK to do the job for me, it never does. And even my bullets get cracked sometimes!! It winds me when that happens.
