AA ON A TRICKY FLOP
Villan checks to me. Theres 1000 in the pot I have 2200 left. I definatly want to take the hand down here on the flop if possible. Theres a spade draw there and a lot of turn cards could be dangerous if my opponet was holding j 10 or something like that. I want to make a pot size bet but that leaves me 1200. Realisticly theres only two cards in the deck that can beat me my opponent surly would have reraised with qq. Should I just pust here.?

I definatly want to take the hand down here on the flop if possible [/ QUOTE ] So...push? Some people are comfortable playing in difficult situations (seeing the turn here would qualify) in order to extract maximum value. Some people aren't. If you fall into the latter category, push. If the former is the case, I'd make a sizeable bet here, hoping to keep a Q in the hand but making it incorrect for 2 spades or some other draw to call. |

Thanks [/ QUOTE ] By shoving all your chips in and making him fold (apart from when he has a nine) you are actually taking the safer road than by betting small and trying to get paid a bit on every street.
