AA...do I get greedy?

i agree.

i just think you're taking a lot of risk because you also have to beat the guy whos all in.. and isolating him gives you a better win ratio.. even when leading before the flop.

isolating the all in guy doesn't make you beat him more often...if anything your last post makes me really want to play a sidepot

On party I hit the minraise button here.

There is a minraise button on Ultimate Bet too...

I call the re-raise. Also, if MP3 comes along, I'm playing to the end no matter what, so I may go for c/r on flop, and then push turn if he checks also. I'm not really worried about giving free cards. Curious if everyone else only likes the push on flop?

Is there any other hand you would consider just calling with pf in this spot?

the answer to this question means nothing unless you think his opponent is capable of a third level of thought...which i doubt he is.

I don't know about 3rd level...The guy's thinking, "wow this tight player just raised preflop then only called off like a quarter of his stack. looks like he's trying to trap with a monster to me." if garland pushes he could likely to think, "oh this bastard has AK and wants me to fold my pocket two's, good thing they are a favorite over AK, I call."
Not that this amount of reasoning is certain for the other player...but it's definitely possible and worth considering.

Yeah, perhaps I'm way off, but the re-raise smooth call looks worse to me then a push here (if I were villian). BUT the ultimate trick is to try and get a read on how deep you think your opponent thinks about the game. How standard is this thought at this level. It doesn't appear like something too advanced. Perhaps I give more credits to my opponents then I should though.

I would push here. If you're read on MP3 is correct though, then I'd call. I think it's pretty read dependent between call/push.

[lehighguy]

I call here. I feel protected enough and will try to trap MP3.

That being said, if I had KK I'd be all-in.

Seems like an easy call. The pot will be bigger than stacks on the flop.

Think for 10.. then call.

Wow, why the hell would you push? Let him put 1/3 of his stack in wth 23% at best (67 suited)?

PLZ just call and push and flop. Pushing preflop is really really bad.

Pretty much what i think of the hand too.

Easy call / push flop IMO.

You have to let him commit the most money against your nuts PF. It's a lot better than protecting your hand. AA is a STRONG favorite 3 handed all in PF vs any type of hands they might have.
