The way I use A-K is to either "use it or lose it."

If I need chips and my stack is low, I'm pushing.

If I think I can get my opponent to lay down pre-flop after he raises, I'm re-raising or moving all in.

But,if I don't need chips, and let's say there are two all-in pre-flop raises in front of me, if one of those stacks can hurt me, I will fold. A-K is still a drawing hand.

I think it's important to be aggressive in tournament poker, but even the best drawing hand needs to be folded pre-flop some of the time.
