When I first started playing poker, I always used to get all my chips in the middle with AK because I knew my post-flop play was weak and shoving took any further decision-making away. To be honest, i've seen a full range of results with AK against different hands doing this. I've lost to 22 as well as QQ, KK and AA. I've lost to weaker aces. I've also beaten the monster pairs including AA when I've flopped a straight. So getting it all in pre-flop with AK will double you up a good amount of the time and it will also knock you out quite often. Now I'm more experienced, I'm much more mindful of looking at stack sizes and position etc. In the early stages of a tourney, if I'm reraised by someone and I'm going to be out of position, I'm more likely to fold and just wait for a better spot. In the late stages if I'm being blinded out and I'm low in chips that AK is being shoved all day long. I definitely have a clearer thought process about playing AK now though which has simply come with experience.
