Trips in your hand ain't so bad

[Runner Runner]

Full Tilt $200 PLO (9 handed)I have about $185, nobody has less then $70.

UTG calls, I limp in EP with A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], MP calls, LP who covers raises to $13, button calls, sb calls, bb calls, utg calls, I pot to $95 or so with the intent of going the rest of the way obviously, everyone folds.

Comments?

I think if you are just doing this as a bluff its OK, certainly you are behind their hands though, this is a good spot to bluff though because noone else has AA for sure.

lolol horrible

[wazz]

Yeah, terrible, you're always behind preflop.

My sarcasm meter needs recalibrating.

OP's push is good, for value, against anything PF.

Am I being leveled?

You're ahead of pretty much everything or even $. Some people will be folding, meaning free $$ for you when someone that's even calls you which they probably won't since they don't have AA.

So yes, this is good. Go here and play around: www.twodimes.net

AAAx ss agaisnt random hands:

1 opponent = 60/40
2 opponents = 40/30/30
3 opponents = 27/24/24/24
4 opponents = 21/20/20/20/20

AAAx ss against good hands:

1 opponent (top 10% of hands) = 62/38
2 opponents (top 15% of hands) = 40/30/30
3 opponents (top 20% of hands)= 28/24/24/24
4 opponents (top 25% of hands) = 20/20/20/20/20

So it's really important that you have as few opponents as possible.

But a good rundown hand has you in a bit of trouble here, but not enough to make it -EV for you, so long as you're sure you can get it heads up, because you're seriously screwed against two rundown hands (like 28/36/36 with your hand telegraphed and a fair ammount of BBs left behind).

Yeah, obv easy re-pot in OP situation.

I 2 dimed it after the hand and was a little surprised that the trip Aces hand doesn't do much worse then Aces.

Getting this much of my stack in pf as a guaranteed favorite with a nice overlay with the intention of always committing the rest is never a bad thing. As long as you can get over 35-40% of it in the middle pf. Getting between 10-25% in pf against in a multiway pot would have been quite bad with trips obviously.

Fold the first time, once you have limped you have no real choice but to play it that way.
