Default Re: Top Set of Aces goes to He77

I go broke with it too. I'm not sure why RedMarrion feels that AA with two low cards can be overplayed--ever--preflop, but it's an... interesting... perspective.

On that flop, you're nowhere near drawing dead to half the pot--a 3 or 4 will often counterfeit your opponent's low (as it would've here), giving you a scoop. The flush draw is problematic, but you hold the ace of suit, so it'ss only big danger if the nut low also has small hearts.

Sure, it's not an ideal board, but I'm willing to get all-in there.
