Default Re: Playing ATo

I think this hand is very game-dependant. In the 3/6 Party games I play I will play it from any position. There are so many people that will play any ace that you will get paid nicely if you hit.

In the 5/10 Paradise games I played it from 4 off the button or closer if there was no raise. Sometimes the games got very tight though and then I'd raise wtih it from EP again to try and steal.

It's not going to be a big money maker for you though so if you're uncomfortable playing it just don't. But I think we worry too much about some of the hands like KJ and ATo. As long as you are careful and know you're opponents, I think you can make money with these hands. You should make more from the bad players when you're ahead than you will lose to the good players when you are behind.
