About LinkBacksThis seems to be tricky. I won't see either ace or king on the flop most likely, and since I have raised some BB preflop it's not a cheap game to play (If I don't raise preflop it gets even more difficult via say 5 opponents who may hit 2 pairs with crap hand or whatever).
Problem is here you can always run into AA, KK or trips, and I don't like to gamble my entire stack if I don't even see either an ace or king on the flop.

On loose tables AK early is either a minimum raise or fold long handed. On tight tables go for the blinds from early.
It is only a drawing hand and should be played late and hard. - use it as a bluff mask for all drawing hands.
You should think Anna Korchnikova with AK - looks good, wins little and position is ALL
