Speak to the old time poker players and they will say ace-king is a trap hand.  But nowadays playing online poker, the young guns will fire away with ace-king no problem, they won’t even think twice about playing them.

All I will say is, watch out when playing ace-king, in my mind they fall into the trap hand category and I would play them with caution. You have to focus hard on what the other players are doing post flop.  I suppose the aggressive play just pushes most people out of the pot, so if you want to play poker like that then chances are that you may win more hands.  Suppose it depends on who you’re playing with.

What do you think about ace-king?
