Default Re: Limp AA? Unique situation may warrant it...

I agree with your general comment, but have to say that:

simply increasing the size of the pot is not the only reason to raise a premium starting hand preflop

When it comes to AA it pretty much is!

Hi aron,

Then why would you ever raise AA pre-flop?

[/ QUOTE ]

As has already been said, to build a big pot while your equity is big. Unless an A falls it goes down drastically on the flop, especially against a large field.
But also to buy the button and gain control of the hand.

If the OP is to be taken litteraly, which I seriously doubt. I'm pretty sure limping in early position would give you rockets the most money. A whole lot less of the pots but larger pots when they come your way.
