Default Re: AA - very basic

Last night at Winstar I had a similar hand. Ah As, playing $2/$5 NL, raise to $15 from SB with only BB left in hand. BB is a crazy lunatic. BB calls, flop is Qh,5h,2s I check because I don't put SB on QQ and I don't think he has a flush draw, but I know he's crazy and will bet anyways. He throws $50 into a $30 pot. I reraise to $150 he calls quickly.

Turn is a 6d, I move all in for a remaining $120 or so, calls quickly, river is Ad. Villian turns over 3,4 offsuit. 2 to 6 high straight.

Two more hands later Villian calls a $1400 all in, with two players all in the hand one for $500 the other for $1400, on a Q,J,10 board with I think two spades. Villian beats a flopped straight and flopped top two pair when he hits his flush on the river.

Lesson here, some people just don't like money and they are willing to pay anything to see the next card. Against these players, get all the money you can into the hand and let them call.

I don't know about your hand Isura, but I'm assuming the guy sucked out on you. Most of the time these guys are so busy trying to hit their draw and get you to fold representing AA that they never bother to consider you have AA yourself
