Default Re: AA out of position

I don't think AK is a possibility after the turn raise. If i was opponent and raised the flop, and then was led into again, i'm calling, no way am I raising again. I'm hoping to show down cheaply at that point. I raise with KK or another set hoping that you will raise me with your AK or your AA here and let me clobber you. On the flop, I probably reraise the flop to see where i'm at. If he pushes, I fold.

to the other poster, I don't think KK is that unlikely. He raised preflop and got a good sized reraise from a blind. Typically that means at a minimum jj, and QQ AA KK are more likely. If I had KK and was villain i'd probably play the hand in a similar manner, and hope that no ace fell on the flop. Once the king falls, he's in high cotton. I don't like re-reraising with AA or KK because it basically lets your opponent know EXACTLY what you have, this way there is a little mystery.
