I have not looked at the results yet but I am not sure about the bet on the end. I liked the play on all other streets though, particularly if you were reasonably sure that one or both of the blinds would fold. Otherwise, you should have 3 bet it.

Now I see the results. Looks like the river bet worked out for you this time. I like it when I can make value bets like this that pay off, but I have be certain I am against week players like this. Particularly BB. I do not do it as a rule, even with AA, with a third player doing all that cold calling. If it were heads up against the original rasier, then a bet on on the end is mandatory.

Seems like that call enticed the BB to stay, worked out quite nicely.

Nice pot! I put the BB on a spade draw, but it turns out that he's a complete moron.

How often do you cold call with AA in this position?

[astroglide]

most of the time unless i know the people behind me to be extremely loose

if the guy in front bet again, i would have raised the river and even capped it if the blind folded and the guy in front 3bet. i do my best to not fear callers.
