Re: Still learning, Aces get me again!
I always hate playing AA like this. In a multiway pot...that has been 3bet pre, I usually play AA extremely cautiously,and usually will c/f alot of unimproved flops. Boards I will continue to fire at would be like 449 something like that, with the J9 out there + the diamonds, there is going to be a ton of diamond draws and straight draws here and you basically need your one pair to hold up against all this EVEN if you are ahead at the moment. I really really like checking this flop. Also, I would think it would be painfully obv to the opponent that you have AAxx and he is only calling preflop to crack you overplaying them, which I think you did. One pair with no draws arn't going to hold up in omaha, especially vs two players (albeit one is all in).

Re: Still learning, Aces get me again!
Why is 3betting bad preflop? Also, what is calling or shoving our psb on the flop that we like?

[/ QUOTE ] Unless you're 3betting all the time, it gives away your hand and it makes it easy for your opponents to play the flop perfectly; you'd prefer to get more of your stack in with a 3bet. On the flop you will get called by various types of draws, as well as one pair+draw hands against which you're not in bad shape. Of course you'll also get called by hands which have you crushed and it's not a flop you can be too excited about but overall you have to bite the bullet here. |

Re: Still learning, Aces get me again!
I think I might 3-bet from the blinds < 0.5% of my hands. Why build a pot in the worst possible position when you'll be called by a wide range of hands?
Also, it telegraphs your hand, as only the LAGgiest players will 3-bet like a double suited connected hand out of position. If I had the button, I'd 3-bet all day and with a wide range, but I don't want to build big pots out of position with almost any hand, including all but the very best AAxx combinations. |
