You simply can't. He's not going to make the most he can with AA playing it that way. It could have been worse. For the record, you want to play with people like him. He'll call you down with any hand AA or bottom pair.

You can't. You're seeing this river unless you get heavy action somewhere. Be thankful that this guy has no clue how to bet his own hands.

[Fat Nicky]

you can't put him on that, you should actually be thanking him for saving you bets.

[Pocket77s]

You're right, it could have been worse. I was thinking he was calling down with a medium pocket pair or a smaller K

X-RAY GLASSES. HE JUST APPLIED THE FUNDAMENTAL THEOREM OF POKER. OR HIS POCKET A'S HAVE BEEN RUN DOWN SO MANY TIMES HE IS OVERLY-PASSIVE.

What's the problem? Your opponent failed to raise you at any point when he had you beat the whole time. You played this hand well, and villain played badly. He gave you lots of money on this hand.

[mtdoak]

You can't. Just be happy you didn't lose 2 more BB in that hand (you probably would have if he played it right).

[Pocket77s]

Thanks for putting it that way because I was steaming because I didn't put him on having me beat. I did save more bets by him not raising. The guy wore dark sunglasses and a "Bubba Gump" ball cap for pete sakes!
