A strong player limp-reraised from EP after I raised AKo from the big blind at a home game. I thought for a real long time, and due to the fact that I expected KK+, I mucked it (what would I hope for on a flop?). In this game we all had what I referred to as the "burger king power chip" (from some blackjack program on tv) which would allow each player to force someone to reveal to their cards after a hand was over. This "forcing to show" could only be used in one instance for the 5+ hour night.

He showed queens. Bastard.
your AK is still a drawing hand and you're OOP. folding isn't bad in general (depends how deep the stacks are).
