This is how you do it boys.... After the min reraise, i figured him for AA. Im not sure if i was pot commited yet. I didnt push after his minreraise because i didnt want to scare off QQ, JJ, or AK, if he might play it that way. Should I have just pushed then? After he rerereraised, i told him I had to call, and did. He lost with AA.

Personally, i think his minreraise from 10.00 to 17.00 is enough to imply Aces, MAYBE QQ but i think i would have called at 17.00, then played it accordingly.

Hmmm interesting, i never even considered just flat calling. Good idea /images/graemlins/wink.gif
So lets say i just flat call, whats my move on the flop?

On the flop you are hoping for your set, but since you missed it your move would depend on your opponent. If you are sure he has aces at this point, which it does feel like, you would either bet out very small, say 2.00, and hope he doesnt raise too much, giving you a cheaper turn; or fold. The reason the extremely small bet seems to work well is that the villian wants to get more of your money in the pot if you appear weak, coming out with a small bet like that, and will therefore raise an amount you would call. Id expect he'd reraise your 2.00 bet to 10.00ish, which is only 8.00 more. If youre really attached to the hand, or suspect he might be doing this with AKs or QQ, it seems like the cheapest way to get to the river. However, i would usually check fold here, as i am fairly certain he is holding AA. If the player has been doing a lot of bullying, preflop and/or postflop, then i would probably get my money in there preflop like you did.
