100NL LIVE -- did I misplay my Aces?
Hard Rock in Tampa, $1/$2 NL, 9 or 10 players, Hero has $71 in chips, and is covered by most players on the table.
Caliber of play is what I call "Championship Hold'Em": most players are tight aggressive, Seat 8 is talking about making $4K off Internet poker as "an OK month", Seat 4 is involved in maybe 5% of pots. Hero has a relatively loose image, due to a suckout on an all-in, picking up small pots, and generally acting like a donk. Hero is SB in seat 10, dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] UTG (tight, but can be a calling station and will pull the trigger w/o the nuts) raises to $8, all fold to Hero, who raises to $26. UTG calls. Hero moves all in (9 reds) dark. Thoughts? (this is my first strat post. tell me what i've done wrong.) |

Just wait for the flop, hope there is no A or K and then shove.
Profit. |

I don't think you misplayed here except maybe the dark part. With your stack, you aren't laying down aces after the flop anyway. I probably would have shoved any flop but just waited till it came out. The only downside to shoving dark was the fact you pretty much played your hand face up.

[/ QUOTE ] This was my concern as soon as my chips crossed the line. I was like "well, obviously the only hand I do this with is aces", but because I looked like the sucker at the table, maybe they thought I'd do this with any pair. So do I post results in white? |

The irony of it is usually it doesn't get paid off because people with KK or QQ are afraid you have one ace. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] |

Yah i really don't see the point of this at all. you only have 50 dollar left. Wait 2 seconds and bet like a normal person. i'd bet 40 dollars except if the flop came 2,3,4 then i would fold

I'm never folding AA to an UTG raiser when there is already ~$50 in the pot and I only have $45 left behind. Was that last sentence mistyped or did I miss something? |
