Default Re: AA facing big raise live

hmm... so after his raise to 100, you have like 140-ish left right? one things for sure... if you're gonna play, theres no point in calling to see another card IMO... you'd spend that anyway. so i'd just go all-in. of course i would have to think about what hands he'd raise first, but unless i had spesific reads that he'd only raise the very top hands and not playing very aggressive otherwise, i'd just stick it in there.

Seems like based on your information that you should try quizzing him about his hand since he was helpful before. In absence of any other information you pick up on from him, I would do whatever you think is more likely to get all the money in the pot (push or call). Why would he raise like that if he hit a set? Two pair seems unlikely but not impossible. Looks more like ak or kq or who knows in a live game, but I can't fold this for these stack sizes.

This raise means one of two things in my experience.
-he has a hand that beats aces and wants to stack you
-he has a king (AK, KQ usually) and thinks its the nuts (ie overaggressive donk)

Just decide which one is the case, and act accordingly.

I think you are beaten. If he is as solid as you say, I doubt he would have check/raised with just a K. He hit his hand, knew you would c-bet, and now he wants the pot.

However, if you've been c-betting every raise and have folded to pressure, maybe he's making a play or thinks his K is good. If he sees you as TAG, this is doubtful.

I agree that you have two choices, though, fold or push.

In this situation, do what your gut tells you.
