yeah, smells like 2-pair/set to me...min-bet/big-reraise. couldn't imagine this line with TPGK. TPTK is prob raising PF. PF limp? fer shame, fer shame! [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Don't go for the limp-rr unless your table is raising every pot.

Edit: I'm still not folding here, this is often a king decent kicker who thinks hero has air.

I may be a worse player than you but I sure as hell ain't folding aces here, could easily be a king or a LAG that you havn't labelled yet cause it's early. Also, I would feel no shame in losing one buy-in with AA this early on. Heck, I might even push and then go play another should he have flopped two pair.

I must say at this point I agree with Henrikrh. Although the buy-in at the table might make a difference on my choice. I have seen plenty of players at the $10 and $15 tables make this kind of move with Kx. From their point of view they have a top-pair and they don't want you to draw to a pair of Aces - or to scare out your K with a low kicker.

I would probably be more worried if they raised less, as if they wanted me to stay in the pot. This just feels like they are trying to hard to chase you away.

Although I don't claim to be an expert and maybe this is one of my holes in my game.
