Does anyone lay this down?

I probably fold preflop. No reason to play that out of position.

I probably flat call the flop. I see people betting draws like this often and I think its better to just call because you have a good shot of quartering someone if you hit and you'll lose a lot less when you don't hit.

With that said, once you've already raised it and he re-raises a call or re raise is reasonable.

Since when is the button OOP?

Given the preflop raise, I'm 100% sure he has aa23, probably suited.

My mistake...bad reading comprehension. I still lay this down preflop at least 90% of the time.

BS

there are some players for whom pfr = AAxx 90% of the time or more. if this is one of those players, i think this is a not a difficult lay down.

that being said, there are definitely reasons that you can peel one off if you think you can outplay villain on later streets. from my experience, though, you're rarely going to get someone to laydown a set of aces regardless of what the board looks like.

Maybe villain had something along the lines of AAQT and was trying to push hero out preflop, then just got lucky flopping a higher set AND avoiding a low on 4th and 5th st.?

AK actually has 3 ways as well. .

[Assani Fisher]

much more likely that someone raises with a hand that has AA than a hand that has AK, although obviously a hand like A23K is a reasonable hand to raise with in that spot.

[akashra]

Nods.. Wasn't really saying much about what hand he raised w/either way... Just that AK has 3 possible combinations as well..
