When you know they\'ve got aces
At what buy-in could you actually fold this flop? Could you ever fold here pre-flop after the mini-reraise? This was an 11, so I just cannot ever force myself to fold QQ here... The funny thing is, I was so sure he had aces, I was almost rooting for an overcard to come on the flop. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
Seat 5 is the button Total number of players : 10 Seat 6: HERO ( $845 ) Seat 3: sbl21 ( $830 ) Seat 5: gotdeeznuts ( $1580 ) Seat 1: VotacThien1 ( $770 ) Seat 2: baglady_t ( $840 ) Seat 7: crazy_jules ( $690 ) Seat 9: THREEKINGS04 ( $640 ) Seat 8: punch_salmon ( $755 ) Seat 4: budyzer2 ( $290 ) Seat 10: Arch314 ( $760 ) Blinds(10/15) Dealt to HERO [ Qd Qh ] punch_salmon folds. THREEKINGS04 calls [15]. Arch314 folds. VotacThien1 raises [65]. baglady_t folds. sbl21 folds. budyzer2 folds. gotdeeznuts folds. cubsfan71 raises [190]. crazy_jules folds. THREEKINGS04 folds. VotacThien1 raises [335]. HERO calls [200]. ** Dealing Flop ** [ 4c, 5h, Jh ] HERO checks. VotacThien1 bets [275]. HERO is all-In [445] VotacThien1 is all-In [95] ** Dealing Turn ** [ 2s ] ** Dealing River ** [ 3s ] VotacThien1 shows [ Ah, As ] a straight, ace to five. HERO shows [ Qd, Qh ] a pair of queens. Anybody get away from this at any point in this hand? Even though I was "sure" he had aces, I just cannot see ever folding here in an 11 or 22. Thoughts? |

You're cubsfan? Right.
Meh, I can't see this at an $11 either. |

Re: When you know they\'ve got aces
Yeah, that's me... oops! I don't think i could fold at a 22 either.
As I try to improve as a poker player (and I think I'm improving by leaps and bounds), I just don't want to start making reads that over the long run turn me into a "big laydown" wimp, you know? But here, I was so sure he had aces... Argh... |

Push preflop at a $11 or a $22 or a $33. Probably at a 55 as well.
Interesting question is with Jacks I think. Queens are a bit too strong not to push. |

Re: When you know they\'ve got aces
It seems pretty standard to me, this. With JJ I would just call, and still be faced with a difficult decision on the flop, but meh.

Re: When you know they\'ve got aces
I play at the 22's and have seen people min-reraise with A3 and 44 so don't give anyone too much credit until they deserve it.
