Default Re: Does his line look like AA/KK? - NL10

I find AK a pretty hard one to play in aggressive hands. Maybe a good post for a better player that myself to write.

Note that in this situation there is most likely no FE. If you shove pf, the only hands that may ocassionally consider folding are JJ, maybe QQ; and those hands are at best, worse than a coinflip. You are completely dominated by AA/KK obviously.

Imo, this hand played as well as it probably could have. I can see JJ/QQ shoving it in on this flop (sensing weakness) more often than AA/KK (for value reasons obviously).

I think OPs arguement for folding pf is reasonable but as played looks fine.

I know what you mean re: feeling. We all remember the hands where we shoved KK and villan turned AA but we pay little attention to the 95% of the time that we were ahead in the same situation.

I made a similar post about gut-feelings and facing minraises/min-4bets pf a little while ago and got a hard time for it. People stuff around with an array of hands and FPS at 10nl so I'd make a guess that altough you got stacked, this is not a huge leak in your game.
