good result- but the right play all the time? NL25

[KingOfSwords]

Preflop is weak, as mentioned before.

I'm not sure why you checked the flop. I'd lead with a pot-sized bet. I've seen friendlier flops, but it's not KKQ or anything.

And while I agree that we can fold and wait for a better spot given all the action on the flop, and the multiple opponents, I'm not sure what we're afraid of our opponents having. 76 for two pair? A set? Certainly possible, but given the size of the pot and our strong hand, do you feel good about laying this down?

I prefer calling in this spot.

Re-raising with AA pf is bad here. Stack sizes are all wrong. Just call. Push unlimited $$$ on flop with AA all the time.

Just ignore that. It's unbelievably bad. Not re-raising with AA pre-flop here is pretty terrible.

re-raising here gives your hand away. i mean, come on. I'm folding qq- here everytime. Maybe not kk though but only because i'm a suckout wizard with kk against aa.

You people really do hate money don't you.

Reasons to reraise preflop

- You have a big hand (the nuts if you will)
- You have multiple interested parties and would rather not have all of them join you on the flop unless they pay for it
- You will be OOP for the rest of the hand
- Liking money

calling is sweet here because we have the nuts and want a family pot. i mean we can't win a big pot without tarping, ldo. however, we need to reraise w/ kk for information so that if 4bet we can make the right (but painfully correct) fold.

see above post on why we need to smooth call aa and reraise kk. raising 3bbs otb after 2 limpers is such a strong play that qq=22 here and if you're folding 22 you need to to be folding qq.

good lord, if you would fold QQ in that position, then your folding way too much. My nitty 3-bet range alone would make you fold pretty much every decent hand you got.

Reasons why you raise PF - You have the most equity, and you know what...you put $ into the pot when you have the most equity...

wtf is this thread? i hope most of you aren't this retarded.

[Snafu'd]

OP, I'm making it at least $2.75 preflop and sometimes a little more if I've seen people call big raises with garbage.

To all the guys leveling in here : This isn't BBV, so gtfo.

Re-raise more pre-flop please.
