Default Re: AA check, and call

Your line is fine, but I like betting/3-betting the turn more. You know this guy is going to raise you a ton on the turn, right? This is what guys do to others when they are running bad. I can't see why you wouldn't want to gamble here. If you get 4 bet, call down.

Isn't there some meta value to Schneid's line, as he stated in the OP "I've often meekly called down with whatever, and lost to their slightly better hands, and have been playing very passively postflop, as often happens when running not well...". By playing possum it also sets up future hands where his action will be misunderstood, thereby gaining an additional edge. Forgoing a little gamble now to gain in the future sounds like a good tradeoff provided he shows and the table is paying attention. If there wasn't the history Schneids sets up I'd of course prefer Sucker's line.
