Damn you. This gave me the same brilliant idea and now I know how the story ends.

OP- my friend- heed my advice. Take your time with what promises to be a legendary finish.

I suspect the accolades you receive here will rival your tournament results.
Well said Leo. I also am reminded of a quote from one of my favorite movies, Goodfellas..."Paulie might have moved slow, but it was only because Paulie didn't have to move for anybody." You're the boss, OP!

When deciding whether calling raises with speculative hands preflop is a good idea, remember its not just your stacksize but also your opponent's stack size that matters.

also, shove with AKs is super standard.

+100

There's a reason this TR is already 5 stars and 3 pages long.

Great work OP; keeping us on the edge of our seats. Looking forward to the Moar, when you decide it's time of course, Paulie.
