Re: Newbie to NL, AA hand
PSW,
Welcome to NL. I also am fairly new here but certainly not new to poker. The best advice youve gotten is when Amoeba wrote..."dont make bets that are only callable by those hands that beat you". This is a nicer and more informative way of saying "good way to go broke to a set or QJ". You mentioned how you were new to NL. I dont know if this means you were formerly a limit player but if so you can think of this situation as if you were facing a river decision in limit holdem. Will this bet be called by a worse hand? That is the question you must ask. In the AA hand you describe you will only be called by a hand better than yours (unless you know the opponent to be a very very bad player) so that makes moving all in a bad play. Your bet should be somewhere around the size of the pot. If you get called then you play the river depending on your opponents action and the card that falls. THE OUTLAW

PSW, You mentioned how you were new to NL. I dont know if this means you were formerly a limit player. [/ QUOTE ] Yep. But I can't find good live games that aren't NL, so I am trying to make the switch. I make $11/hr playing 5 handed .50/1 on the Net. I think bad players think that shorthanded allows them to play even worse than usual. Plus it gives them twice as many times to make mistakes as it goes very fast. PSW
