AA, Check Raised All in
 

I had just sat down at the table only having played the blinds when I was dealt AA on the Button.

No stats or reads on Villains.

Poker Stars, $0.01/$0.02 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 4 Players

BB: $3.14
UTG: $3.81
Hero (BTN): $4.89
SB: $4.20

Pre-Flop: A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (BTN)
BB raises to $0.10, UTG calls $0.10, Hero raises to $0.26, SB folds, BB calls $0.16, UTG calls $0.16

Flop: ($0.79) K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 Players)
BB checks, UTG bets $0.48, Hero raises to $1.25, BB raises to $2.88 and is All-In, UTG calls $2.40, Hero ... ?

I am getting pretty good odds here but does the fact that I am being checkraised all in w/ a caller in between us negate that?

dude - get it all-in, they could be doing this with a lone K at this level.

oh yeah - and raise to like .5 here pre

Re: AA, Check Raised All in
 

Is this hand history altered? The pre-flop action makes no sense. In any case, you need to 3-bet more PF- like .35 or .40, maybe more, if they are stations.

As played, you gotta call this at NL2.

Yeah I'm not sure what happened to the HH. I orignally just converted it to text so I could email it to a friend. Unfortunately, I can't double check as I'm at work and don't have access to the original.

This is all strange. It is 150-200BB deep, raised pf to 5x, called, then you reraise and 2 people call???

I mean against any kind of thinking player this would be scary as hell, like at least one of them having QQ or KK.

If you suspect them to play well (to some degree) fold. But I guess this is a donkfest and no thinking oponents are in sight. I really believe you can expect one of them having KJ and the other one Q7 [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] so I would call

This should be the easiest shove of your life. Don't call, push.

This isn't true at all IMO. The only draw out there is JT and nl2 plays VERY nitty. Sure, people overvalue hands like top pair, but they will know something is up here. You are, at the least, up against two pair.

Re: AA, Check Raised All in
 

fold and raise more preflop,i've never played this level but UTG surely must have 2 pair at very worst.

Getting 5:1 plus the rest of UTG's stack, hero doesn't have to win here often for a push to be +EV.
