Slow playing AA is trouble.
In fact slowplaying anything - when you have the best hand, it can only go down from there.
I don't like to be superstitious but there's something about it...

Think of how many times you've gotten someone all in after you make a flush or a straight and they show AA or KK or something that would have pushed your crappy hand out of the pot preflop.

i disagree, you have to slow play sometimes to vary your betting patterns. Otherwise you become easy to read. Yes there is risk, but there is also rewards in the current hand and future hands.

I always just push here, people constantly call with 44 and A6 and stuff.

FWIW I lose the hand any way it's played. BTN showed 33.

I've just gotten burned so many times. If I flop a flush, yes. If I flop two pair no way. If I flop a straight I might as well bet (at the level I play $5) I'll get more out of it that way anyway - whoever flopped a pair is just waiting to re-raise me.

This just happened. It might not be the best example, but I think if villain had re-raised big preflop I might have folded AQ.

As played, you should fold to flop raise... Villain plays pre ok but raises too little on a draw heavy flop, he should really be raising to like 600. Also as played hero cbets too much I think.

Really? It just seemed like such a tiny little raise.

how many clean outs do you have? 3..... Not enough to draw.

I don't know what "clean" outs means. Don't I have the 10s and the other Aces?

That cbet is too big.
