10NL: AA turns a set and curses
This hand caused me a lot of grief, and even after reviewing my session later on I'm still not sure what is the best line.
Villain (MP3) is a relatively bad player but not a cash cow. PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums) saw flop SB ($12.05) BB ($8.35) Hero ($10.05) UTG+1 ($16.10) MP1 ($6.05) MP2 ($15.20) MP3 ($5) CO ($18.55) Button ($4.80) Preflop: Hero is UTG with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. MP3 posts a blind of $0.10. <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $0.4</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 calls $0.40, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP3 (poster) calls $0.30, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, BB calls $0.30. Flop: ($1.65) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">BB bets $0.3</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $1.8</font>, MP1 folds, MP3 calls $1.80, BB folds. Turn: ($5.55) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Hero curses and ...? Based on the game so far, I'm facing either two pair or a big queen and hence a made straight. If MP3 has a queen, I'm about 20/75 underdog, with 5-6% chance for a tie. How often am I still ahead here? Against a queen I know I'm getting bad odds all the way. In other words, c/f or shove, and most of all, why?

Re: 10NL: AA turns a set and curses
You might as well just shove given the fatc that this is $10 NL and your opponent has a half stack to start the hand. He doens't have a T incredibly often here. If he were deeper stacked, I would check and re-eval.

Level?
Shove this all day every day with what villain has behind.

[ QUOTE ] Shoving allows him to play perfectly against you and accomplishes nothing. [/ QUOTE ] lol its NL10 you get looked up by plenty weaker hands [/ QUOTE ] True enough, but I do prefer to learn from my plays, both good and bad. The less mistakes (according to Sklansky's Fundamental Theorem of Poker) I make, the more I can expect to win. And why do I care? I plan to make my own way by climbing up the levels at some point.

Re: 10NL: AA turns a set and curses
Can we please stop putting the emphasis on our replies on which level the hero is playing?! I do understand that you are going to get looked up by a lot of hands here at a lot of levels, not just 10NL. And the decision is mainly based on stacks sizes and odds to river a boat if behind. It has nothing to do with the level or the skill of the competition.
