I have a tricky time with A,K/A,Q/A,J/A,10 and this is for 6 max.
Obviously you're raising in any position with A through to Js and a raise in late position with A,10s if there's no action. The questions I have are these.
Say for example I raise with A,Q and I am re-raised you then flat call. First of, is that the correct move?
Now post flop an Ace lands, you bet and are re-raised, do you call? The reason I ask is because you was re-raised do you automatically put him on A,K?
All-in post flop is common if both hit the ace and I will call most times with A,K or Queen.
Now the same applies to A,J,10....are you folding if you're re-raised and possibly put all in? You can only put them on either A higher kicker or they hit a set which is unavoidable and you're probably going broke.
Also if you have A,K and raise and someone calls, are you always calling all-ins with them if you hit the ace?
EDIT: Basically are one pair good enough (if top pair post flop) with a highish kicker good enough to call an all-in move in micros? I've called them before a few times and in most cases to find I'm up against a low A and thankfully I think most times my kicker has held out..or few rare times I'm up against a set. Is it a profitable move to call them long term at the micros?
The other night was a perfect example, I raised with A,K and someone called. Cut a long story short after an ace landed and few raises post flop he pushed and I called for him to show over K,10. My Ace,King held up and I thought wtf was he doing? Do these people just see a top pair and don't know anything about kicker so think their hand is best even though they was RAISED preflop?
