I dont know what wrong with people on this board. I think a fair percentage are just giant nits who dont want to ship it in without the nuts or a draw with 17 outs.
This is a far cry from having "the nuts" or a "huge draw" (incidentally, OESFD's have 15 outs, not 17, to make a straight or a flush). The guy has AK hi for no pair, no draw, against a committed opponent. He has nothing but a dream of playing fancy to win the pot. The dream usually dies when the guy with $81 of a $200 stack in the middle calls, and AK has 6 or less outs to win with one street to come.

Hes repping a big, big hand. 4 people saw the flop. Once its heads up on the turn, its still possible he has the best hand. If he is behind, its likely he isnt drawing dead. If he is, oh well.
I like you as a poster, and there's merit to most of the rest of your post, but wow, just wow @ this part.
