AA getting bet into on the flop
 

Generally, when I raise preflop and the caller leads into me, I'm thinking just a pair or maybe a draw. I generally don't put him on a set. However, QJ is one of the hands I was worried about, especially after he check-raised. How about it? Should I just check behind on the turn or can I actually fold after the check-raise? If this makes no sense, it could be because I can barely stay awake as I type this.

played fine. hope he didnt have QJ.

Re: AA getting bet into on the flop
 

Can you explain why you didn't want to check the turn orange? It is because of all the draws that are out there now?

Re: AA getting bet into on the flop
 

cant check the turn. free cards are bad and it loses value. Well played.

anyone not think his reraise on the flop was a little weak?

protection/value (mainly value though). i mean, if he has QJ so be it but i think there is still plenty of value to gain here.

lol, I was at this table for this hand. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] It stuck out in my mind for some reason and then I was reading this post and...Any hoo, what a coinky dink. Looking at my PT stats, I see that the villain here is a big fish. Because the guy you were playing against was a big fish, I don't think there was any getting away from it. Maybe sort of like baluga here, in a weird "Maybe I was behind on the flop but now I'm definitely ahead on the turn so now I'll C/R" way. However, I think I would have re raised more on the flop. Probably to 15 or maybe even over bet to like 19 or 20. As is on the turn, getting 3.5 to 1 ish I wouldn't fold. nh though.
