NL100: AA on a drawy flop

smw1992 · #1 06-02-2007, 01:52 AM

Villain is 60/8/2.5 over 125 hands. Obviously, villain likes to limp and has been getting very lucky tonight. He previously called a 6XBB raise preflop with 10-7 off against my AK won the hand. Only hand I was involved with villain until this hand.

I have been getting drawn out on all night making 3/4 to pot sized bets. I'm sure this flop bet screams overpair but I was trying to get rid of all draws. How would you play differently?

What could you possible do different? This is played fine. You got unlucky, on to the next hand.

This hand is zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

What is it exactly that you want input on?

piebear · #4 06-02-2007, 04:08 AM

you overbet the pot preflop. That's about the only input I can give.

Terrible flop but I don't see how you play it any other way.

Exactly the kinda flop that shorties will A/I with any piece. Since this is soooooooo drawy, you know it's going in. There is no FE on this flop. You wanna put it over the line for ½ a BI?

I would. I think betting ½ pot will get the folders to fold and still allow you evaluate and move forward. If villain pushes over your half pot, you're probably ahead of his single draws, but obv behind the combos that this board presents. I think push is better tho because it MIGHT get the fence sitters to fold. Anyway you play it will get it all in if villain wants to play.

Maybe a little but villain had been limp calling quite a bit and I wanted to make him pay to play.

He showed 9-7o and I was a little surprised to see him call preflop with that hand. So maybe preflop raise wasn't enough?

piebear · #8 06-03-2007, 12:27 PM

you think 8x BB is not enough?

Yeah this happens all-time, today in an SNG I hadn't played a hand except from the BB and raise a couple of limpers with AA strongly. This guy calls, I push the flop he shows me Q7s and had hit two pair...
