Fold AA on the flop - Am I the Weakest Player Ever?
I have recently had Aces cracked so many times that over the last 2500 hands, I am actually showing a loss on the ten occasions that I have been dealt rockets.
The following hand occured this morning. Am I especially weak and feeble? Poker Room skin Limit Holdem Ring game Limit: $1/$2 4 players Converter Pre-flop: (4 players) robracing is SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] UTG calls, <font color="#cc0000">Button raises</font>, robracing calls, <font color="#cc0000">BB 3-bets</font>, UTG calls, Button calls, robracing calls.

Did you not raise PF because you was scared of getting cracked again?

preflop is criminal. I sentence you to a prolonged losing streak of 10 more cracked aces.

No, my failure to raise PF was a feeble attempt to disguise the strength of my hand, in anticipation of getting in some healthy Big Bet raises on later streets.
Accepting that this was a mistake PF, was my fold on the flop reasonable? |

Why would UTG make a shutting out the field flop raise if he had trip Ks?
Why would you be looking to fold easily after you underrepresented your hand preflop? Why wouldn't you cap preflop after the BB 3bets and you are closing the action? You already got extra action, just cap that [censored]. They they will think, "He cold-called and capped, lol, he just capped for the hell of it." |

Preflop is ugly, flop isn't any better. You folded AA in
a 4-handed without betting or raising. And all this on 1/2 pokerroom, thre is no way you can trust the lunatics there (unless you have a read you forgot to mention). |

But still, I think that hiding the strength of your hand preflop is waaaay overrated. especially when it has already been raised. You have your opponents crushed right here right now. Rake in the sklansky bux! I sometimes understand limp-reraising on a butt-tight table, but how many of those do you see on 6-max ? well, enough of that. You've underrepresented your hand so now you have no idea on how to put their holdings in relation to yours, since you havent told them anything about your hand. All your options now are kinda fuzzy. 3-bet flop and bet-fold turn possibly. meh. its a toughh situation, i give you that. |

3b PF.
bet/cap the flop, bet/call the turn, c/c the river. I am -1.45BB/hand for my 11x AA over the last 2600 hands and even I don't play like this. The PF is clear, and UTG is a [censored] if he's playing trips like he wants people out the pot. |

3bet the flop. If UTG caps, then start calling down.
If you bet the turn, and it goes call, then raise, then you can fold. If it goes raise, then C-c, then i don't know, figure it out. |

You can't fold this flop because you underrepresented the strength of your hand here. Pot is going to get big, I don't see what's wrong with calling down.
