Default Foxwoods $1/2 NL my first hand AA, good fold?

I buy in for $200 and I honestly don't remember how much villian had but I know he had me covered so let's say he had $300 in chips. Kind of funny guy UTG raises 20 preflop and every1 folds and he shows aces. Well don't you know very next hand it folds around to me and I pick up aces. I make it $15 to go and only the villian to my left who was the SB calls.
Flop:
K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

I lead out for $20 and he first says make it $30 but then says oh I gotta make it $40 to double your bet. I could have and prolly should have raised here but I just call. turn comes 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and I insta-check. He throws in two pretty green chips for a bet of $50. I really didn't know what to do here and thought for a while and flat-called. River comes 10 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and I check again. He bets $75 and I only had $100 left so I really thought he could easily beat my pair of aces here. Again, it was my first hand I played at the table, I didn't know how he played and I didn't want to lose a buy in right away. So I show my aces and say you must have flopped a set and finally folded. Was this the right fold? Would you have called the river bet? Any help on to play this hand better please?

I'm confused, so does he check/minraise?

Anyways, if you play flop like this, I think you need to decide on the turn what you're doing and probably shove/fold the turn. Since you called the turn you thought there was a chance you were good.. so did the 10 really change anything? KT, K8, 89 are the only hands that improved on the river.. I'm not really sure what to do but it's live so I probably call and throw my drink at him if I lose.

The action and positions are all messed up, but the moral of the story is:

1. We're never folding this hand, so:
2. We should either reraise the flop or get it in on the turn.


If $15 is the standard openraise then just imagine starting the hand with 42bbs.

How long have you been playing at this table? I'm only curious because you don't have any reads listed, but you should have some by now if you've played a few orbits by now...

You note he flat calls out of sb. He is probably not flat calling out of sb w/ KK here. If he has a set of 6's or 7's, fine. Its a cooler, we have aces.

On flop after he min-raises, what are you flat calling here for? Are you planning on slow playing the entire hand? I am thinking you wanted to re-evaluate on the turn?

Flop I am raising to 100-120 usually.

Turn easy shove.

Oops I'm a huge dick...

I just woke up and didn't read the last couple sentences that it was your first hand at the table. Sorry man
