AA on the bubble in the SB - How to extract value?

Call. Again, if you push here, he will fold hands you have smashed, and only call when he has you completely beat. By calling, you open up the chance of him bluffing the river when you check to him, and then you can call his bet. Or raise if it's an ace, or whatever.

I like the check on the flop by the way, but only because you can check-raise all-in. If there was less in the pot, I think you should lead out on the flop.

That was the plan hoping he hit a K or Q and fancied his hand.

I did think about a probe bet of 400-800 and hope to induce a push - if I had been after him this is definately what i would have done, a 'fake' continuation bet hoping for the same result [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
