Line check with AA against a sorta short stack.

This guy just sat down 10 hands ago. He's done nothing odd in that time. I have been a decent number of pots preflop, getting one caller, and taking it down with a c-bet of 3/4 pot on the flop.

With such a short stack, I see no other play. Nice hand.

Godfather-

You need to work on your river suckouts.

BTW, how are the pokerroom games?

I like them. 5-max is very interesting. Has helped me (I think) a great deal with my postflop play and overall aggression. More decisions = more practice = more chances to make mistakes that I don't have to make again = me getting better (hopefully).

I can't think of a different way to play this. Short stacks are notoriously huge fish, he could have a wide range here.
