the constructive criticism is that min raising UTG with aces is awful unless you play very well postflop, which you don't (solid, i'd say). I would probably fold the turn as played- but just know that minraising UTG is awful/not good

it's one thing to go 4x utg, 3x +1, and minraise to open from CO and button specifically to steal and give yourself an opportunity play IP vs guys even if they've got the betting lead in 3-bet pots, but this is inexcusable and i think if you would actually have garnered some results, you'd have figured this out already, duh

lol, whether or not min-raising preflop is optimal is a discussion that nobody will be able to answer with 2 paragraphs.
bet sizing is something I run through my head every single day, and I am experimenting with this right now.
If you think its bad, come sit at my tables, more likely, you find it tough to play against it, because its not popular, and then label it as "bad" without even coming close to the correct amount of analysis for the problem.

sadly most of my threads end up with me defending my preflop play, when I just want a quick checkup on a spot.

If you think I don't have experience with bet sizing, both preflop and postflop, and that those two paragraphs were a correct analysis in a short, concise, courteous manner, then you are either a.) lying to yourself, or b.) just don't know the right answer.

Either way, surely you've got to realize that online poker and discussion of it has been around for many, many years, and that you aren't doing anything revolutionary that can't be countered by a thinking player, right? Don't you think if this was optimal it would have been popular long ago? Think about that for a while.
