Default Re: decided to get tricky w/AA against a good TAG - bvb, oop, 175bb deep

What size of pot are you looking to win? i like a check-call lead, although you might not be maximizing value with this if your opponent was going to keep on bluffing. nonetheless, by check-call-leading, you win money from a lot of inferior hands that would have folded on the flop had you bet out, while protecting your hand from draws that might opt to take the free card if you check the turn. also, if you check-raise the flop, on that kind of board, you are going to get called alot by draws, and you are out of position against a tough player with one pair in a quickly escalating pot due to your check-raise.
