AK Preflop

Am I playing this wrong?

I'd normally flat for trips or fold such a small pair to a free bet after the raise. Certainly not go all in.

Seems to be this way at the moment!

    If you have you put them on Small pair then i would be happy to get it in pre, long term tho its not going to be profitable unless ur a bit lucky or you dominate them AQ/AJ on a few occasions. long term AK v 55 should be - EV. Depends on what mood your in really, also i prefer to be the one shoving with AK rather then calling, as the betting has gone if you put them on pp then you have to get it in really

    Should have said ... The villain had only just sat down short. I see these guys raising and shoving without strength but they may have been lucky and been dealt a monster early.

    I think I'll reraise and call if shoved on more often than not. Against a player I know to be tight I'll consider a fold to a shove to my reraise but more often than not I'm gonna call.
