Line?

Re: A-A in SB
 

way too small a raise preflop for any hand. at least 4

as played, id bet like 5-6 on the flop

turn c/r is horrible, i prefer a b/f

Re: A-A in SB
 

you b/f that on the turn?

Re: A-A in SB
 

yes, because hes not raising anything you beat, while he will call with a decent bit of what you do beat (KQ for instance)

Re: A-A in SB
 

Don't you think he raises there with AQ?

Re: A-A in SB
 

no

edit: maybe A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Qx

Re: A-A in SB
 

what do you put him on in that spot on the turn?

Re: A-A in SB
 

Pre flop and turn are terrible. PF you have given odds to call with any two cards. If you raise big and villain folds thats unfortunate but better than the situation you got yourself into.

On the turn how does c/r get action from worse hands. By taking this line we are turning our hand into a bluff. I would b/f the turn and if called *probably* c/c a small river bet.

Also please don't post results in your threads.

Look up Baluga Theorem.

pf is not enough as stated above. He shouldn't have called but you paid him off. If he called a more significant pfr I would have been more than happy to get it all in on flop / turn as I would be more sure that I'm not able to pay off calling stations who ar dumb enough to follow me to the flop with hands like this.

I made a similar mistake a few months ago and have changed my pf rr sizing as a result.
