Not making money off AA

[Capt Rebuy]

I was dealt AA 3 times over a couple hour session at .05/.10NL. All three times i was in Cutoff or the button. The table had many players who were just limping preflop so i would make a preflop pot size bet generally about .40 and all three times the table would fold around and i would only make about .25 or .30 Should i be playing this differently with the texture of the table or am I playing correctly and just not making money because of the weak starting hands of the table?

You're playing it fine, what do you want to do, limp it and be up against 5 different hands? Sample size, etc.

Three hands is not a large sample size when it comes to AA. Sorry man, but you just have to play more and play well.

LOL, I'm really hoping this post is a joke!

[Capt Rebuy]

No joke I was just trying to see if i was doing something wrong. All the stuff i read says to play it like i did but i wanted to know if at that low of a limit if that was still the way to play it. I just trying to learn as much about the game as i can.

You don't always have to make money with AA !

[lacrymosa]

if after 100k of hands, you still don't win with AA, then maybe you have a case

[Capt Rebuy]

i've gotton AA more than three times my question was specific to a low limit table with alot of passive limping. Do i take the chance of getting out flopped at the hope of someone making a partial hand or do i stick with the sound play of decent raise preflop.

raise preflop, end of story kthx
