Default Re: What am I doing with these aces??

The more likely scenario: I bet, villain raises, someone coldcalls... Now where am I? Am I really going to check-fold the turn because of the coldcall?

Aaron, this is a microlimit game we're talking about here, right? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

IMO you need to bet the flop here, for a few reasons:
1) Value. Bet-raise-cold-call isn't necessarily a bad thing against 'typical' microlimit players.
2) Despite the paired board, it's far from drawless and you still probably need to protect your hand.
3) Checking behind on the flop reeks of slowplayed queens, which will only slow down your opponents. This kind of sucks whether they have trips or not, since we either don't get a sign that we're behind or we miss out on value.

I don't mind the psedo-wa/wb thing once it becomes HU, but I think the best way to get there is a flop lead.
