On the other hand, the flop bet is too small for a good ace, with a flush draw and 3 ppl in the pot, what the hell is that, tripple aces luring into an action? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Could be a scared KK. Put you on the FD, take you to valuetown on the turn, you shove, he'll call your "bluff".

[censored] it if you're wrong, I'd go broke here with 2p.

I would probably fold preflop.

I might checkraise allin on the flop, representing a draw.

The small bet could definately be a set.

I go ahead and push anyway. The money isn't deep enough to fold aces up.

you really think it's trip aces? I think something that either missed the flop or is an underpair.

A lot of times people bet small with a set because they want to be called.

A checkraise allin may look like a draw and be called by a weaker made hand.

Any reads at all of p/f raiser? His raise to 3000 over two limpers is really bad.
