AA faces paired board
$20NL home game, .25/50 blinds
Hero has about $60 and a tight table image. Villain has $20, and is an awful calling station, bluffs often, and loses money constantly. Hero ($60ish) Villain ($20ish) Hero is dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] on the button. MP1 limps Villain limps Hero raises to $2.00 MP1 folds Villain calls Flop: ($4-5) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Hero leads for $4 Villain re-raises to $8 Hero thinks about it for a while. Villain is absolutely terrible. Has been known to minraise in many situations on just draws, absolutely nothing, etc. Hero puts villain all-in for $8 more or so. Thoughts? Notes: - I was raising $2 on almost every preflop raise. I didn't want to scare people away with a bigger raise (seriously, at this table, a $3 raise would have everyone folding). |

Re: AA faces paired board
Looks good.
[ QUOTE ] Notes: - I was raising $2 on almost every preflop raise. [/ QUOTE ] I'm assuming this doesn't mean "I was raising $2 every hand I played", but rather "Whenever I raised, it was $2 regardless of my holding." [ QUOTE ] I didn't want to scare people away with a bigger raise (seriously, at this table, a $3 raise would have everyone folding). [/ QUOTE ] This is precisely why you generally shouldn't vary the size of your raises. The only way I ever consider doing anything differently is if I have a solid reason to think he has a x6 or 99 which is almost never. Nice hand. |

Re: AA faces paired board
Standard. I like seeing a paired flop when I have AA. It means I will always have top two pair and the odds that villain has trips is extremely low, especially HU. Nicely played.
