Pocket AA question.

yes you want to get all your money in before the flop with AA.

I meant jamming the pot post-flop, in that situation. Wouldn't jamming the pot pre-flop just chase people out?

sorry i was a little too vague...my fault...if there are couple of raises or a raise and a bunch of calls THEN get your money in..you will probably have a call or two and of course you have the best of it .//

It's not that I got beat, if AA was a sure thing, no one would bother assigning it odds. It's just been my (limited) experience that people tend not to jam the pot with TPGK. Usually, when someone comes over the top on me like that, they have 2 pair or a set. I wasn't woried about 2 pair, or the straight as the player seemed to be sane enough to not call a raise with that. But, I was really expecting to see a set. Is that line of thinking too weak-tight, dependant on reads of the player, or should I just be jamming the pot everytime and if I lose, I lose?

With the pot as big as it is, and against one opponent, TPGK is a monster.

With only 2x the pot left to wager, you should not be thinking scared. I would be delighted to call his push.

In order to avoid posts looking like bad beat posts, don't post the results. There is no reason for us to know the turn and river. None at all.

Knowing his hand may be interesting, but is not necessary either, especially in the first post. Reply with his hand later maybe.

Ok, thanks for the heads-up. I had seen this done both ways and figured, the more information, the better.

What level do you play? I play at the dizzing heights of $5.50 on UB, and I see people push with lezs than TPGK into pf raisers frequently. If the pusher has been playing few hands and not getting out of line, I am much more likely to give him credit for a big hand, but for the average joe, I don't assume he has the goods just cos he pushed.

Yeah, he didn't appear to be playing very loose, but I wasn't sure as all of the hands he won were without a showdown. When he flipped over JTs I was pretty relieved. Of course, when he spiked the third ten, my enthusiasm died [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img], but these things happen.

I might raise that a bit more PF...my standard is 250 at least in that situation but other then that you cant play it any differently.

You were unlucky, deal with it, it happens. That's poker. Suck it up and move on.

Uh oh, somebody didn't read the entire thread.
