Winning player can't get AA right? - Page 3

AA makes a lot of money two ways: set over set and getting it in preflop. Your opponents are simply not going to get a lot of money in post flop with a hand that is worse than one pair. So stop slowplaying AA. If you aren't getting action, then play other hands faster, don't play your premium hands slower.

Ive been just trying to control the amount of callers to one or two so I can get the most money out of AA. Seems like that might not be getting the most VALUE out of AA where I know I'm a big favorite preflop.

What site and limits are you playing at?

You know I tend to play KK that way and it's my biggest winner. I guess because I don't want to see and Ace on the board so I tend fast play KK more often. Should I examine how I play KK and try to do the same with AA?

I wish ofoto.com would show my image because it shows how I play more than the few hands I posted.

UB .25-.50 NL50. But for the past few weeks I have been buying in at $25 instead of $50. But that is another thread on its own.

I'm curious to if anyone has some stats on me they could post.

Yes. Play AA like KK. KK is your biggest winner because these online monkeys are VERY willing to get it in preflop with the worst of it. For me, AA is BY FAR my biggest winner. I win a ridiculous amount with it. And KK is number 2, but nowhere NEAR as big as AA. The reason for this is that I get all-in against hands like AK-AT all the time preflop. With KK, they have a 3 outer and with AA they need some ridiculous inner straight or running Ts or whatever. That is the difference. They should both be HUGE winners for you.

Edit: Also, of course, with KK sometimes I lose my stack to AA which kills its win rate in comparison with AA.

Agent if you routinely make river calls like that ...I suggest giving up poker. I hope you were drunk at the time.

If you guys are finding it hard to make money with AA you are probably(and in the case of the 2 hands posted certainly) playing them to slowly and getting far to greedy with the hand.

Zaxx,
When I look back and review my session afterwards, I get really upset at some of these calls I made. I say "WHAT the hell was I thinking." I believe this is an experience problem more so than a knowledge one.

Normally I wouldn't do this, but I like you, so here you go:
NL ($0.25), 253, 22.5296, 44.8276, 100.0000, 100.0000, 21.4286, 31.1475, -5.0500, -3.9921, 19.6721, 41.6667, 9.8814, 3.6000

(Just open up PT and you will see what each score corresponds to.)

Thanks. I'm guessing you either datamined me or you use a different name on UB because I have non for you. Do you have a date of the last hand played?
