Default Re: Large Pot With Aces

I raise the flop and face the field with two bets. Obviously you don't fold out single high clubs or pairs, but the runner runner guys get lost and it's pure valuetown. This isn't a spot to wait for the turn given your relative position I think. I guess I call down given the big pot and your read.

I agree with the above, especially the flop raise. It was a blessing that the preflop raiser was to your right so you can clear the field. A raise has the field not only looking at calling two cold but the prospect of you and the cutoff making it four.

As played it looks like you need to grit your teeth and call down purely due to pot size. If a club hits on the river and you get a bet and call in front of you, then a fold seems safe.
