It all depends on the size of the stack ... ace changes everything, because in an online rocker, most of the hands are paired with an ace .. in this situation I would make 3-5 raises

For me there is no secrets. You have to bet if you are the first. And try to find out the pair of aces. If someone call for it, take it easy and care.

best regards
It is important to know the position of the table and the size of the chips, KK will have an advantage if several players decide to participate, so it can limp and have more chances of success

Depends on your position at the table, how much you raised pre-flop, how many opponents and of course stack sizes. But generally you can always test the waters by raising a half or quarter of the pot size.

With aq, I make 3bet, if I get 5bet, I fold. if 8-12 bb, then just go to all in from any position,

kk I play differently, if the prizes are soon, then I can throw it away, if I am sure that someone has an ace with a kicker and me at best 70% to win

In this situation, I might still win the hand, but I will not put in any more chips.

what you doing?
In a hand like this I prefer to play a slower game because the possibility of the opponent having a pair of ace is great. So this situation is not so easy to decide.

You need to act depending on the number of players on the flop and their behavior
If the players are tight, then we can confidently continue to raise
If the players are aggressive and you do not have a clue what is in their hands, you should fold

Your post lacks so much info for us to give a solid advice.

First of all, what was the preflop action? What is your position? and is it full ring or 6max?

All of those can have an affect on how you want to play out post flop.

I mostly play C-bet in these situations if I raise a pre-flop. If the player continues to pay then turn to the check, I think about a check or maybe a fold. You need to be careful when the ace comes out and you have a smaller pair. Interesting topic, I will review other answers. Greeting!:top:

With an ace out there I wouldn't put too many chips. I think there is nothing wrong with folding. Better to be safe then sorry.

open fold, there's no reason to continue if an ACE flops

I’m putting out a continuation bet if I’m first to act, if my opponent leads off then I may look him up if he’s a very aggressive player or my chip stack is big enough to speculate. No matter what I’m never calling off too much or going broke when the ace hits. Sometimes you just have to fold KK. If my opponent bets a lot, I’m just going to fold, especially to players that are playing tight or abc style poker. The ace is a hand killer. No reason to chase or bleed chips when I’m likely beat a lot of the time.

That's why I wear depends. Don't want to make it look too obvious. For me a check is in order, depending of course on the action prior to the flop.

It is a difficult cituation! You must be prepaired! Carefull bets and bluff! An ace from another player is a problem, and a K on board is something very nice!

Check until opponent bets and then raise him. What he does next will give you enough information to either lose the "minimum", or take it down. Also, the pre-flop action, stack sizes, the player's image, and the position all play a huge factor in what I decide to do. But with what you have posted, I would play it with a check-raise, if he has a weak ace it will hard for him to call as you are representing a monster hand(set, top two).

We’ll I’m going to assume that you bet pre flop based off of your hand strength. I would definitely c-bet just as a feeler bet and if they re raise you fold.

I would bet and see if someone calls, if someone raises it's pretty clear they have an A or maybe even a J10, so I am pretty skeptical when I see a higher pair out there or a straight draw.

You raised preflop and they just called ?

Bet 1/2 the pot on the flop. That A is in your range.

I have been in this situation and my opponent folds showing an A!

He must have thought that I had a better A. He is right if his read is that I had a superior hand preflop.

If he raised preflop and you just called to disguise your strong hand then you might be in trouble.

Good luck !
