($27) Thoughts of folding AA...

I wanted to lead this flop, but then I chickened out cuz I felt he was gonna raise me allin, I was deathly afraid of a two pair I mean, besides TT-22 what else could this guy have?

I got my chips by stacking people and showing down big pairs .

i make it 500 to go preflop v the limpers

and bet about 60 percent of his stack on the flop, call any raise.


you ran into kj kq jq whatever here, but eh- happens you still have outs and many times will have the best hand here.

i wouldnt fold any flop with AA against a single opponent who has only 13BB. i would also lead out the flop

Don't play scared. I beleive dali eloquently said for QQ-AA, AK, raise 3xbb + 1bb for limper.

Add 1bb for EP-MP.

He's open limping, then cold calling with AK?

This guy is obviously a donk, there is no hand he should play this way.
Knowing he is a donk, no way I fold AA on any board to 1 bet.

This is what I was thinking. Even if you ran into 2 pair you have something like 9 outs on the turn and probably 12 on the river if you miss the turn. Get your chips in there against shorty.

i cant even fathom folding here, and not betting out is much worse. Would you be this scared if you had AK, i think youd play AK harder than your aces here which is not right.
