AA how do you play this preflop?

[NL__Fool]

MP1 is a 12 tabling regular with stats of 11/6 over 4500 hands
The cutoff is even nittier 9/8 over 800 hands

If I raise here I am narrowing my hand range to 2 possible hands. I will pretty much fold out every hand I don't want to fold out by raising, with the exception of KK, which I would love to go to SD against.

Since KK will be calling me here or pushing almost always
is a better plan to just smooth call and get it all in on a safe flop?

Are the times that AK and 1010-KK suck out on me worth the action I will get on the flop if the flop falls something like 256? Asssuming that ifd they do suck out on me I wont lose my stack?

On the other hand I really dont want to see a flop 3 way here oop so what is my play?

Make it $40 to go. You are oop so you don't want a 3way flop.

How big is your range if you just call?

I have never understood why people want to do anything but raise here. There was a nice discussion on this topic about a week ago in this thread.

I am with three-betting, I would much rahter win a small pot here than play this pot three ways against two nits.

RAISE! There is already 19 in the pot.
If it stops right here you have already
won a nice pot...If they want to play for
a lot....so be it. I like 40!!

I agree. You want to trap MP1's dead money in the pot and get head's up with CO.

Keep in mind - If CO calls then that leaves you with only $60.00 behind, a $85.00 pot and you OOP. That means no matter what comes on the Flop all your money is going into the pot.

I'd play that hand that way every time - Shove the Flop, and be glad it was internet poker so he couldn't see me grin.
