1/2, tough AA hand, play along with me

yeah, good points. I don't think I vary my bet/raise sizes enough in general. : (

anywhere 40-50 is fine.

wtf? seriously? I'd make it 32/34 as a default. How can you possibly squeeze with any sort of frequency making it 40-50?

Huh? If you're going by a simple rule of thumb: 9*3 + 9 + 2 = $38

But you're oop and the CCer is 200bb deep so making it more is good. I'd probably make it 40-44.

b/f turn is worst thing you can do.

bet/call

make some sammiches and stir up some lemonade to put in your newly acquired cooler for a picnic

[Noam Chomsky]

hmmmm. yeah, I'm rethinking this and realizing that I have no [censored] idea where I got this amount. I just sort of 'did'. Given op's three bet size here, maybe it's a stars thing? I dunno.

[Some9]

I check the turn

Yeah, b/f is atrocious. This spot sucks in that you're often beat, but the pot is so huge now you can't do much else but get it in.

[goofyballer]

Nobody's mentioned c/f turn and I think it's worth discussing. With someone all-in on the flop, I think for button to make a large turn bet with a hand we beat is pretty rare. Also our hand is pretty face-up if we bet, and he's a regular so I don't think we can expect him to stack off that light in this spot - again, because why would we be bluffing with someone all-in on the flop?

Also, Noam, simple reason for squeezing to at least 38 is that any smaller would be making less than a pot-sized raise, which is especially bad when 200bb deep vs someone.

you probably haven't played with me much to say that, most regs here probably think I am a station
