Default Re: My plan

The problem with Ax, is since others are playing it as well, your kicker becomes important.

whether you paid half a bet or a full bet preflop is insignificant to spending 2.5 BBs pushing your ace-bad kicker to the river, only to find your A3 is beat by the other guys' A4 through AK.

If he has some kicker less than a queen, he's probably not going to raise you, he'll just call you down.

You need to be careful. I think your strategy will lose you a lot of money.

If I pair an ace on the board, rest assured I have at least a decent kicker 85% of the time.

If I have a naked ace and an ace flops, if I bet the turn and get called, I check it down to the river after that.
I'd usually check the flop, and if checked around, bet the turn.
