jjgoldy5 0 Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 50$ PLO8, sitting with 30$ (I know, I know, sit filled up to 50...but I play better at 3/5).UTG I have AA34 DS at a fairly aggressive table, and I decide to limp reraise. 3 limpers and a button raise to 4BB's, I repot and the limpers fold, the button calls.The flop comes 8 6 3 with 2 spades (I dont have spades). I have 22 or 23 behind with 12-14 in the pot. Button has me covered.Whats the play? Shove it in and hope I'm freerolling him on his low getting counterfeited?What do you think of the preflop reraise? I put myself in a really tough spot, by playing the hand OOP...and maybe I should reserve this move for AA2 hands? Link to post Share on other sites

EurekaKid 0 Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I'd push it through, you are probably slightly too deep to feel comfortable doing this, but its unlikely that you are behind for both sides of the pot at this point. You have the agression, but a pretty transperant hand. If you had bought in for the full $50 it would be a different hand completely, I wouldn't have made the re-pot pre-flop, and you would have to slow down on the flop.Another thing I noticed, you pre-meditated what you were going to do before anything unfolded in front of you. Maybe the re-raise pre-flop was more appropriate move when there had a been a raise and a call in front of you, allowing you to make a bigger raise. By locking yourself into making the play, you completely discarded the possiblity of smooth calling and disguising a strong hand. Link to post Share on other sites
