OPTIMIZING
ACE KING
by James Sweeney & Adam Jones
While AK is one of the most profitable starting hands you can be dealt, most players struggle to maximize their earnings.
Beyond open-raising AK, the confusion sets in quickly. Should you 3bet AK against an EP open? Does AKs play differently than AKo? Should you 4bet it, or just call and see a flop?
Postflop things get even more challenging. Should you go for 3 streets of value with top pair? Should you give that check-raise action on AJ6? Should you barrel your gutshots?
This book answers those questions and more. Start optimizing AK as a singular piece within your entire range and strategy.
"In the modern era of NLHE, understanding and playing AK well requires skill and nuance. Optimizing Ace King will change your outlook and certainly help advance your poker knowledge giving you an edge to beat the competition."

While tearing down a single starting hand may seem like a futile exercise, the fact is that your play with AK impacts your winrate in a massive way. This book goes well beyond "how should I play AK when it misses the flop?" and instead cracks into your overall strategy to make holistic fixes that allow you to minimize your losses, maximize your wins, and stack chips faster (and higher!) than ever before.
"OAK is an amazing piece of work!
Certainly, one of the most talked about hands in poker should be worthy of its own text and Jones and Sweeney’s undertaking has elevated playing this hand to the level it deserves in today’s games. The text is full of great graphics, thought-provoking discussion of strategic play development and implementation, which are based on sound principles. Not only do they outline the strategy for given situations, but they promote a methodology which shows you how to develop your own strategies and a framework to do so."
