Hey you - learn from my mistakes
 

This is a two part post, with the followup coming after a little analysis of thist part. This situation may be automatic for some of you, but I have problems playing AA/KK on scary boards.

BB is 30/4/1
No read on MP2

Raise?

Re: Hey you - learn from my mistakes
 

re-raises! His preflop raising indicates AA/KK/QQ/JJ/AKs/AKo/(TT?), most of which you beat here. The only ones you're behind on are 1/4 of the AKs and the TT. I would bet this until it hurts.

That turn card licks balls.

But yeh, raise, I doubt it helped MP2. I'm folding if BB wakes up.

Raises...

:grunch:

The only hand I'm really worried about here is AK of spades. But, I think a smaller overpair or a single A/K of spades is more likely than the AK of spades. So, I raise the turn and call down a non-spade river if he 3-bets.

EDIT: just noticed it's not HU. If BB wakes up and check/3-bets the turn, I suddenly get a lot more nervous, as he could certainly have been on a flush draw this entire time.

Raise - if mp2 bites back or BB wakes up you might want to run.

Re: Hey you - learn from my mistakes
 

Raise. There's many more combinations of A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]A, K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K, and Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Q than there is A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].

I raise it here. If BB wakes up and 3-bet or if MP2 3-bets, I think this is a fold. Either of them have a better hand if that happens, and there is alot of scary cards that can come on the river.

Raise it again, it´s big enough that you need to protect your hand when you are ahead, which you often is btw.
