Short AA line check - 200nl
 

Please comment on this hand. Unfortunately villain had only sat down, so I had no reads.

The game is Crypto, 200NL 6 max, and I am in SB w/A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Villain has $186 and I have him covered.

Villain limps in MP, Button limps, I raise to $9, only the two limpers call.

Flop: ($29) 6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
I bet $18, Villain minraises to $36. Button folds, and I fold.

Besides not betting enough on the flop, was this too weak-tight? Perhaps smooth-call and bet out on the turn is better? How would you play the hand if I had the A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]?

Thanks!!

Yuck, I probably fold to the min-raise had I bet more.

With the A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] I probably call, check-call, check-call/fold depending on whether I happen to think hes full of [censored] at the time or not.

Fold to the min-raise looks good.

Re: Short AA line check - 200nl
 

That minraise is usually a draw, or pair + draw that wants to "build" the pot for when they suckout. I like the stop-n-go on a non-spade turn. Raise more preflop.

I should really know this, but how does the stop-and-go works? Call and bet out on the turn?

Is the turn-bet "always" 1/2 pot 2/3 pot, can it be pot?

Re: Short AA line check - 200nl
 

I don't think that's specified in the definition of a stop-n-go, as it's more of a general thing to do. Like you can also "stop" preflop and "go" on the flop.

Would he really raise here with a made flush? Stop-n-go seems like a plan (barring a 4th spade on the turn, in which case you fold like a little girl).
