Default Re: Terrible River for AA

Why did you want to be sneaky? if you don't have a read on villain, what makes you think that just calling will get more value than raising? Calling just encourages button, SB AND BB to overcall since the odds will be so awesome, and you really would prefer to do this hand against fewer opponents

raise more on the flop, something like $5-6 at least, MP is getting rediculously good odds to call after the SB calls for $3. It is really hard to say if they are on diamond draws, straight draws, or even if they have you crushed with a set already with such a small bet, practically anything will stick around

turn is a bad card for you, as is the river. But again, since you bet so small on the flop, it doesn't hurt to fire a second barrel on the turn since you still might have the best hand
