Default Re: $16 AA early levels control

[ QUOTE ]
I had a sixth sense that they had a Q... I think I picked up a timing tell. I kinda played a little too aggro last night and I think I compensated instinctively in the first bit of todays session. I think flop bet is better tho thinking about it now. Is it a problem to try and play small pots early bc this isn't really the ideal flop for AA obv. Plus little fear of free cards if I am ahead, played it WA/WB...

Picking up on a timing tell is one thing, just assuming that your opponents have outflopped you is another [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img].

We bet the flop not because we want to define our hand and be able to get away from it, but to get value out of it. Obviously we're not going broke every time here on the flop or turn, but we're way of villain's line here most of time on those streets, and just as we don't want to give him credit for a queen, he doesn't want to give us credit for one either (he'll pay us off with 2 pair).
