AA early in satellite
6th hand in $26 satellite to $214 tourney. 14 players to start, 3 get seats. SB had lost almost 2000 chips 2 hands earlier after raising preflop, raising a bet on a 653 flop and folding to a bet on a 5 turn. No reads otherwise.
It's on Bugsy's Club, so no converter. Game: No Limit Hold 'em Level I: 25/50 Blinds (25 Minimum Chip) Starting Chips: 10,000 Starting Players: 14 Seat 1 : Hero starts with 10,000 Seat 2 : UTG starts with 9,975 Seat 3 : UTG+1 starts with 10,050 Seat 4 : MP starts with 10,025 Seat 5 : CO starts with 11,825 Seat 6 : button starts with 10,000 Seat 7 : SB starts with 8,125 >>>DEALING HOLE CARDS<<< Hero dealt down Ad As SB posts the small blind 25 Hero posts the big blind 50 UTG raises 250 to 300 4 folds SB calls 275 Hero raises 1,100 to 1,400 UTG calls 1,100 SB calls 1,100 (Pot 4200) >>>DEALING FLOP<<< [ Qs Ac Jd ] SB checks Hero ??? Should I bet here? Am I afraid of giving away free cards? |

Re: AA early in satellite
2.5k, you have to lead your giving way to many Kx and Tx a chance.

Besides KK and TT, AK and maybe KQ (if one of the villans is bad). I would guess most of the range for both villans is pocket pairs, AK, AQ, and anything that caught any part of this flop will bet if I check or bet on the turn if I check here. |

Re: AA early in satellite
I'd bet about 2/3 of the pot. Let them chase for a hefty price, or even better let them semi-bluff all-in with a hand like KJ. If the straight card comes, you have redraws to a boat or quads, but since you're almost certainly ahead (KT isn't played as often as other broadways) why give anyone a chance to catch up?

Re: AA early in satellite
By Kx and Tx I mean KQ,KJ,KT,QT,AT,AK. With the preflop action more than likely these hands would be suited.

Re: AA early in satellite
Just trying to play devil's advocate there. I agree you have to bet.
I bet 3,000 and both villains folded. I was disappointed I didn't double up. Judging by their later play, both villains were pretty bad, who knows what they had. |

Re: AA early in satellite
I bet for value.
Hands like 88 won´t put any more chips in anyway, but we want to give AQ / AJ / JJ the opportunity to stack off here. |
