AA facing deep flop push

Dave I · #1 02-17-2006, 09:33 AM

This is about my 4th orbit. Have not seen much out of villain except he is passive pre-flop and very aggressive post-flop. I very seriously doubt he has two pair here. So, does he have a set? If so, why try to push me out. This is a pretty dry flop. Does anyone think this a clear call or clear fold?

Just muck.

It depends on your read...

This maybe spewing, I find a set hard to believe. I see AQ or JTs or maybe even KK being cute. I call, but not too happily.

not clear either way, but I like a call, as I agree that a set wouldn't get so frisky on a dry flop like that

This is about the best flop possible for AA. I call and if he has a set he has my money. Even against 2-pair you still have outs.

edit - Was this your standard pre-flop raise? If your standard raise has been $1 and now you just made it $1.50, you are probably dead in the water.

From EP, yes. Not that they had seen it yet. Usually from LP too if multiple limpers otherwise I open for $1.25.

Hmm...not looking to play a 200bb pot with a pair, i'd probably fold because you are going to find out what he has anyway since CO is all in, fold and make a note, you'll get another chance at his money if he's bluffing here.

I call. I think he has a AQ or KK and wants you out of the pot.

4_2,

I agree that it is a fantastic flop for AA, but playing for 200bb is...risky, no? its not like you have pot odds to make the call, you're basically getting 1:1. Is there a >50% chance you are ahead? I'm not so sure. It's possible.
