Default ($5) Where I limp AA 5 handed

Image: I had just been called for the first time after my 6th or so open push, had KQo and beat KJo knocking out 6th place. Villains are all standard low stakers.

I played this whole hand expecting aggression that never came. Normally I'd be happy to just value jam preflop. Limped PF so I could reraise all-in (never happened). Checked the turn so villain could catch up (or if I'm really lucky he has a 3 and will lead). Bet small on the end, since I had the A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and villain can't have the nut flush.

Yeah, I guess you hit the perfect turn to slowplay.

Bleh, I raise often, so when I get a good hand, I raise that too.

i cant remember ever not raising/reraising/re-re-raisng, etc. with AA in a SNG.

the simplest play (opening to 250-275 here) is the best. you are trying to stack people, and the way to do that is by building the pot.

Since you've been pushing a lot and have a loose image you should raise this. Also you gotta bet this turn. Most of your calls are coming from flush draws and this is the time to charge them.

if you shoved previous 6 hands, i'm scared to death by your limp, and fold hands i might call you with if you moved in.
