Default Pushing AA Take 2

$25 PL Omaha Hi/Lo (10 handed)

SB ($43.25)
BB ($3.15)
UTG ($42.34)
UTG+1 ($12.38)
MP1 ($36.05)
Hero ($47.98)
LP1 ($9.50)
LP2 ($80.43)
CO ($31.45)
OTB ($5.05)

Preflop: Hero is in MP2 with 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
<font color="#666666">(1 fold)</font>, <font color="#FF0000">UTG+1 raises [$0.85]</font>, <font color="#666666">(1 fold)</font>, <font color="#FF0000">Hero raises [$2.90]</font>, LP1 calls [$2.90], <font color="#666666">(2 folds)</font>, OTB calls [$2.90], <font color="#666666">(2 folds)</font>, UTG+1 calls [$2.05]

UTG+1 was a horrible manic and I wanted to isolate him. Unfortunately that doesn’t work

Flop: <font color="#009933">($11.4)</font> 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
UTG+1 checks, <font color="#FF0000">Hero bets [$7]</font>, LP1 folds, <font color="#FF00FF">OTB is all-In</font>, UTG+1 folds

I don’t usually continuation bet with this hand after getting 3 callers but I was playing against 2 short stacks and the idiot. Plus this is a decent board to take a stab at the pot.

Hand didn’t go to plan but what do you guys think of my improvising?

That's a great flop considering most opponents will have A2 style holdings. Your AA against their other 2 random cards looks good to me.

This fine given the stack size of OTB.

If he has you covered and plays back, then I think you have to give it up. UTG+1 almost certainly has a low-orietned hand, but OTB may very well have a bunch of high cards and currently have you beat.
