WA/WB AA hand

[Vyse]

People tremendously overvalue / love to bluff on paired boards.

And by betting flop and turn, if he raises you on turn, Baluga obv

Which hands that I beat are going to play for stacks here?

If it goes bet/call bet/call, bet/shove, how often is my AA actually good?

Not very often, but instead of surrendering all initiative, you have been the aggressor and if you size your bets properly, you won't have paid a different price than here (tho you might have folded out QQ, which you are trying to extract value from)

Meh, its a difficult game and I should have been in bed a long time ago.

Ok this is all helpful. How do we think the fact that the pair is K changes it though? If the board was 5/5/7 then without a doubt my standard line would be leading the flop and the turn.

Obv because:
1. with the 55 flop someone else can have a smaller overpair and pay me off, not possible with the KK flop
2. someone is much more likely to have a K after calling my preflop raise than a 5.

I guess that is part of my reasoning for going so passive/weak.

i don't think flop turn are that bad b/c you could definitely play AK the same way (prob c/r turn though).

[Paul Thomson]

I think you played the hand fine.

Why no 3b PF?

[Vyse]

He was the initial raiser.

[Manchild84]

Right.. my bad. Accidentally looking at flop action.
Yeah, C-Bet flop... If Im villain I bet any 2 after being checked to there.
