I never know wtf to do when I miss with AA after being aggressive preflop.

He only has $39 left, which is slightly more than the pot, are we cool getting it in here with the nfd and AA, which could even be good?

I like it.

That's not a bad flop for your hand.


At worst he has a set and you have 11 outs to beat that.

/shrug. The only other line i can kinda see is c/f the flop.....but he's so short.

Sooo I like it.

there's a case to be made for not reraising AAxx pf

say the flop is K76 rain

you're losing your c bet here much of the time. you had one suit which was good, but i dont mind the line of calling the raise either. remember your AA isnt that far ahead PF, and your specific hand gives you very few redraws on a bad flop.

i dont know how that table was playing though, just suggesting an alternative way of playing the less strong AA hands. obv if you pick up AAKK AAKQ AAJT and hand such as those pump it up every time.

also if you're playing against trickier players, moreso even if you're oop, being more careful is def. a good idea

1) I don't like the reraise preflop
2) As played, flop is standard.
3) Nice river

You've got Hearts on the flop. It's automatic.

whatd he have?

You didn't miss the flop. Had flush draw with overpair.

Much harder if you didn't have flush draw.

i think the play of this hand all around is pretty standard.

check/folding the flop is the most weak tight play i can imagine. it's so likely that we're crushing this guy and if were not we have redraws.

When there's a lot of money left to play, it's best not to announce your aces. That generally means trying to put in the first and third raises. The second raise gets you in trouble.
