Default Re: AA in a battle of the blinds

If you would have just called the flop, whats your plan for the rest of the hand after that turn?

I find this a somewhat tough spot.

And I dont like 3betting the flop BIG because... well, i'm just running bad with aces recently [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

So, whats yor line on the flop, and the rest of the hand...

I think my problem in the hand was that I really didn't have a line nor a plan for the hand.

I'm asking because I got my ass kicked in similar situations
(blind battle) twice. I led flop then went for the turn c/r.
Both times villian turned the nuts(str8 and 2pair) dunno if my line sucks or I'm just running bad...

Cant figure the best ine in these type of hands... [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Villan seems very loose PF, and as seen in that earlier hand, will defend his blind with ATC.

Sometimes, I like to c/c, lead turn (sng) this flop (for obvious reasons), but you have to ask yourself how much value/pot control you can maintain before going to showdown. In this case, I think we lost control of the hand with all of villan's quirky mini-raising.

I generally bet this flop almost all the time, just thinking of some other lines we could take.

Villan showed a tendency to bet his weaker hands (2 pair on 3344 board). Did c/c turn/river down seem sensible? I don't mind your stop-n-go play on the turn, I just hate the possibilities of creating a big pot with just 1 pair.

I think lead, c/c, c/c could work better. lead, c/c, block might be work too. tough hand.

Fold to his turn raise.

Bet bigger on the turn, so you can comfortably fold to the raise.

The following is of no help for this hand but rather is a standard line I have been taking against any decently aggressive bb player:

In a post a while ago TWP mentioned that in the sb he limp reraises his premium hands in a blind battle because bb never buys the reraise. Since I've started doing it, I've had good success.

In the hand it looks like he hit the 6. I try to get to showdown cheap.
