AA hand, do I call down here?

Party microlimit game, I'm in cutoff with A /images/graemlins/club.gifA /images/graemlins/heart.gif.

UTG calls, next player folds, EP calls, folded to B2 who calls, I raise, button folds, SB folds, rest call, including BB.

Flop: Q /images/graemlins/heart.gif3 /images/graemlins/club.gif9 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif
UTG bets, EP calls, B2 calls, I raise, UTG 3 bets, EP folds, B2 calls, I call.

Turn: K /images/graemlins/heart.gif
UTG bets, B2 calls, I call.

River: J /images/graemlins/diamond.gif
UTG bets, B2 folds, I call.

14 - 1 on your call is good enough to do it, but I'd expect that with no flush draw on the flop, you'll be shown two pair or better quite a bit. However, UTG may have AQo, A9, or even AK here. Granted, there was no pre-flop raise, but if he's a typical low-limit player, you never know what you're up against.

I'd say you win at least twice for every 14 hands like this. Call.

You backed off too soon. You should have either 4-bet the flop or raised the turn.

Four bet the flop every time here. Bet the turn. If youre raised on the turn, call and be prepared to fold on the river unless your hand improves (you pick up an ace or the board pairs low).
