i think you need to raise more preflop (t80-100).

why? don't I *want* action here?

That's pretty awful. This is saying that you are afraid of playing pots postflop.

[/ QUOTE ]

huh?

[/ QUOTE ]

Sure. Raising this much could work. However, it completely reaks of a monster hand. Why make your hands stick out like that? Poker is about folding hands when you think you have the worst of it, and that is a risk you have to take when playing AA and KK.

so your disagreeing with the guy who suggested i raise 5xBB and not me being confused by that. right?

[/ QUOTE ]

5bb is the largest I would ever raise with this, and I will rarely ever do that. Saying it is right to raise 100 in this situation is awful.

[/ QUOTE ]

you would not raise more than 5x BB with KK? So you're inviting small pocket pairs to play against you?

[/ QUOTE ]

Not realistly. Unless they are all world class players, I am sure they have quite different range of calling hands. If some of these hit, I double up.

However, I am confidenet I can outplay my opponent postflop, and fold if he hits his set. But, that's just me.

If you're confident that you can fold if he hits his set, then I guess you're just a better player than me, so do what you want. However, I have a real hard time believing that you can get away from that there.
