Default Re: Party 1/2 : AA - do we wait for turn?

Checking the flop would be horrible.

In general, two things about "waiting for the turn":

1. It really only applies to situations when we're deciding between calling and raising, not betting or checking. Letting everyone draw for free is so much worse than letting then draw for one bet we need to bet.

2. It generally only applies to hands that are MUCH more vulnerable than your AA here: particularly hands vulnerable to many overcards or on three-straight or three-flush boards.
