It looks like you played it well. The LRR is good sometimes, but dont do it every time and do it with hands like an A high 3 flush on occasion as well.

Raise third yourself...completing will not make it obvious you have aces, but your superman play certainly will. I would probably not reraise 4th...I'd likely wait till 5th and see what develops, possibly getting a raise in there.

I think this is fine. However, unlike Jeff if I slow play aces I like to wait until 6th not 5th to see what develops for the checkraise or raise.

With an Ace out, I don't try anything fancy on third. I raise right away, and If I buy the antes, I'm happy enough. Apart from that, I think you played it fine.

Why not raise 3rd? I would want to knock everyone out with this hand since you have an Ace dead already.

It was very nice of the dealer to make it look like you were betting your flush which hit. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Actually that probably cost you 2BB since he would have paid you off with Ks up (unless he was full of it the whole time)
