of 16 hands with pair that e seen in 3 days 14 were lost, why does this happen? Either way, it gets lost. How do you play your AA pair?

super aggressive

your AA get weak of other players improve their hands and its very common. unless you want to take chances seen the flop and if you improve your AA with a set without taking chances with possible flush draws than you can try to get as much money from your oponents
otherwise go super aggressive before flop.

Smart. Always try to get pre all in. But not you. You should lure someone into squeezing after your 3 bet. Or in some stages in tournament you can just call first raiser if after you are 3-4 players still to act. That way someone often squeeze all in and you are good. But most of the time you need to raise, bbut not too big from your usuall raise range or you will seen as having AA or KK. You need to disguise it as much as you can, but also get as much money in before flop. After flop its a whole different thing specially if you are playing against multiple opponents.

Indeed, a pair of AA cards loses quite often-when a lot of players are revealed. But I play with this couple always aggressively.

Aggressive

I always play AA strong and aggressive. I bet big before the flop and follow up with a big continuation bet. I don't always win of course but I think it is the best way to play them. I never slow play my big hands.

You have to play aggressive to limit the pot to 3 players max.

I can’t believe how many people limp with AA and see the flop 6 handed then blow up when someone hits...

I want to go to the flop heads up if possible because of the equity drop with added opponents, so I use my bet sizing to accomplish that...sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

I always try to be aggressive pre flop. Pushing people out is far better than losing everything bc you can't lay down AA.

with AA pair, you should play more aggressively than you think. These are excellent initial letters; then in a game with a full table, try to press the players with weaker hands to leave or force them to pay more to stay.

AA is not a guarantee that you win, only the best hand is preflop.The best game is to play aggressively with such hands.Beginner players often play with premium hands too passively, this is a mistake.So there is no guarantee that you will win,but you can put your opponents in a difficult situation if you play aggressively.

Just playing AA in plus is not enough. We must always make sure that we win the most with aces when we are ahead, and of course avoid AA comparisons with sets that have been closed on the river by the flush, etc.
AA is always nuts preflop, so play it properly. I mean open-raised, three-betting, and if someone gave you a chance to compare pre-flop - of course do it.

Open with a raise. If there were limpers, isolate them (4-5bb on average). If there was a raise, do 3bet (about 3-4 times his raise). If you were given 3bet, put 4bet, to 23bb, and gladly call it push. If he calls my 4bet, automatically put all-in on any flop (unless, of course, we play not in dip stacks of 400bb).

16 hands is a very small show to draw conclusions, play AA, have to play forward, betting to extract the maximum, AA, is + EV, not the quantum to that. The fact is to have your opponent read and put him in a range, and to do when he tricked, how much the board is all favorable to him, then there is not why I bet, goes from check, check. I'm sure that at a 1000 AA hands, at least 70% will win you.

My guess? not betting enough to push all players out preflop.

When you have AA you can't let people see the flop cheap, but you don't want to push them out either, unless late in the tourney and short stacked....and even then...

Likely you are playing against horrible players that will call any raise with junk, and they get completely lucky. It happens.

But sometimes it seems to happen all to often on certain sites, and almost always on the river.

One other note, if you have AA, and someone goes all in preflop, do you call? Even in a multiway pot??

In a New York minute!!!

Ok, I got that quote from TJ Cloutier. But I support that comment.

A quick default move if you just absolutely dont know what to do with your aces. Remember it's never the wrong move to go all in pre with AA. May be a bad move in some cases but it's never the WRONG move lol

I have come to the conclusion that it depends on the tables that are played. Without microlimites they are more likely to have more villains who accept your bet. If you are playing in tournaments it is also more likely that this happens, in the hands of real money larger than microlimites can play less people. So the fewer opponents you have the better for you. You always have to play AA aggressively to get the most out of it.

Be super aggressive in the pre flop to eliminate any opponents with marginal hands. In after flop, change your strategy according to the cards that come.
