Re: Rolled up aces against a scare board, Press on anyway!? 30/60 7S8
Third's fine. Bet fourth, but when you get a fold and the other guy raises, I'd just call. By three-betting, you're letting him know that either
A) You're loaded or
B) You're an idiot.
These options are not mutually exclusive. Anyway, while you're ahead of his range, you're probably not a prohibitive favorite.
The Eight on fifth is somewhat unlikely to have paired him. There's an excellent chance that he's free-rolling, so I'm all for the chicken-call. Maybe he is paired up after all. Whoops, he caught another scary card. Gotta check again. It should feel weird to be checking rolled Aces like that, but I think your hands are tied.
