AA UTG NL10

I think you've played this pretty well. I mean you raised pre-flop with a premium holding in order to thin the field and the flop is a pretty good one for you. I don't think you can fold there. If the cards turn over and he has two pair or trips then good luck to him, but I would've expected a pocket pair like TT or JJ to come over the top of you pre-flop, but obviously that's not always the case.

If I had to put the guy on a hand, I would suggest he has AT or AJ. Having said that, no doubt I'm way out.

I wouldnt expect TT or JJ to rereaise that flop, just flat call. I think you played it fine

Thin the field - check
Get max value pre flop - check
Pay it strong after the flop - check

What did the other guy have?? or is it there and im blind? lol I so hope you won! out of curiosity (although it killed the cat) what did the guy have?

It doesn't matter what he handed, it's posted without results on purpose so as to not bias people's answers. He also lost, because he posted it here.

All completely standard.

You played the hand fine. I'm guessing he probably had AJ, wanting to try to push you out with his TPTK.

I doubt this is AJ. Actually I doubt you're ahead here very often at all.

When he raises our cbet 3x with another player yet to act he's basically always got 2pair+. I'm not much for folding underpairs ever, especially at micro stakes, but I think you can fold this pretty confidently without any reads.

He cant have had any of the hands people are mentioning then, if as this guy above is saying ..he lost then he never had ace jack and such like.

I bet he had 2 2 lol

6 handed i tend to slow play aces. Id just call. Then hope you get a reraise and again slow play. big profits playing this wya in 6 handed as people who have a smaller pair will call you down. People who hit 2nd highest pair on bboard will most likely call you down especially at these low levels. slow playing aces are very profitable in these circumstances. Seems this time you got unlucky. next 3 times youl double up trust me

bingo


He did sort of play his hand face up, I shud have folded, i was so close and just crying shoved lol

A wake up call that will allow me to instamuck next time

glad to know, because if I were 2nd to act in that position, I would have raised just like he did if i had AJ. And if you went all in I probably would have folded. Seeing that he called your all in, its a no brainer hes got you beat. But you dont know hes going to call the all in until he does it. Hope that made sense. but I think you were correct to call because I know i would have raised you on the flop with TPTK and 90% of the people I see would do the same. Just tough luck.

FTR i actually thought it was 2 pair. Most people play the trip 2s slow there. But that should say something about that players skill level. he knew you had a monster and he got paid off on the flop. He played it perfect and you hit a cooler

I would have just gone all in preflop first to act.

dont slow play big hands at these levels.

also he could very well have AJ, JT, 22 here. As played, i'm not sure what id do in that situation. I've been known to marry my aces so i might have done what you did but know that i spewed

He maybe lost but he can't fold it. The only case I fold AA is if there is a 4 cards with the same color on the board and I don't have the flush.

It's only a pair!!

This is ridiculous
