Why didnt you raise the flop? Seems like the hand would have been much easier to play if you had....??????

And you know that the BB isn't laying down his AA (and it's 50/50 that one of his AA is a club), so you're probably just building the pot for him.

Is it 50/50? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Because I wanted to peel one cheap. (?)

I was not concerned with the people behind me for some reason. The BB would probably three-bet me but it might be worth it in case he tries to get cute and C/R the turn...in which case i get a free card!....and I get all those same hands out that I want to knock out now on the turn anyway!!! I like your line better I think.

I think the chances an overpair folds is slim, but you might have up to 14 outs so you don't need a fold from a better hand very often to justify it. Raising here is ok as long as you know AA will not 3-bet you.
