I shove. Young guy snaps it off. The old guy gets a count, and calls pretty quickly. We all showed our hands.

Young Guy: 
Me: 
Old Guy: 

Sighhhh

The only way i dont shove in here is if i get struck down by lightning before i get the chance.  Youre prob not in great shape but you definitely definitely definitely are getting enough equity versus ranges.

Even if you get called by aces youve always got two flush draws..............

I told the aces guy he was a moron for turning his hand faceup and getting it in with one pair when there was 4 to a straight and 4 to a flush.

I sarcastically told the guy with 44 he made a great read pre that I had AK and the other guy probs had blockers so was in great shape and really unlucky not to scoop because he had a straight and got rivered.

Then I asked the dealer for a tray and went to play 50/1.

pmsl. Wp nh? See the way i play it we play a small pot and get most of the dough in when i make the nuts. I never put a penny in behind unless i have implied odds. Tongue in cheek. One word about attitude. You are lucky not to have spent at least one night in the boot of someones car but thankfully we play with nice people in dtd and not the drug dealing money laundering perverts and pimps that in not so long times ago we had to earn a crust from.
Just one final aside to this hand. I pick ten guys who have been playing poker for ten years. All have over half a million earnings on hendon mob. 5 who take the cautious approach and treat AK as ace high like me have plenty of roll good investments and a nice life. The other 5 who are more than happy to play AK fast and hard are still with us but today dont have a penny to scratch their arses with and can be seen in dtd / casinos etc asking to borrow the buyy in for the next game. We all know who they are. Legends but degens who become victims of the wheel craps n black jack

But you talked about 3betting. Would you not even 3bet AK? Not saying get it in, but to one raise, would you not re(back)raise?
played more aggressive in dec n jan and  found that i was walking out the door having ran AK into a better hand or lost a race. went back to knitting in feb and got 3rd in dtd deepstack. certain styles work for certain players. what you need to do is find your best game and play it. no one plays your game better than you. poker is very much results driven and final tables never are contested by 9 nits or 9 super aggros imo.

i h8 racing but still take the 22 over AK heads up

LOL you hate racing so you'd rather have a hand that's "racing" against a few hands, dominated by 2 and dominating loads, to a hand that is dominated by loads of hands, and "racing" with all the hands that doesn't dominate it?

this must be a level because no proffessional player could ever make a living out of the game with such a flawed understanding of basic equities

I really don't think it's a level. Jason, PM sent.
