Getting greedy with AA

<< < (2/3) > >>

dwh103:
Depends on history and your opponents.

If the table has good players, you"ve been a solid TAG and you suddenly flat 1/3 of your stack - your range will be precisely AA in their eyes.

If the table is full of superfish and/or you"ve been a LAGface, then who knows what they might think, before shoving their AJ out of confusion.

You want as much money in pre as possible - never shove for isolation reasons, take whatever line gives you max value. Normally it"ll make no difference, but making a fractionally better play will show some day. Long run, baby.

Most of the time the first option will apply, so standard will be shove, but only for the reason that a flat looks too strong - not to try and get it heads up.

Edit: LAGt*rd is banned apparently?!

WYoung83:
In this situation, flatting looks uber strong, and looks like AA. So i would just shove and hope someone else calls.
If you are a lot deeper, then peeling can sometimes be ok and disguised. But not very often

deanp27:
Just call

Erimus:
and relax,finished 22/839 for not a lot, 3 limpers shoved a 10 from bb, sb had AQ.
Went card dead for a while then picked up kk, c bet the ace high flop got too much resistance and couldnt call the river bet, saved the rest for a shove, unfortunatly it didnt work out, still another deep run, onwards and upwards.

Regarding the AA hand, if i have more chips prob flat but shoving makes it look a bit weaker,obv happy with getting it all in whatever at this stage against however many in, at least you know you have got it in good.

Swinebag:
Very read dependent here.

My standard line is to shove.

Flatting can be interpreted in 2 ways, but mostly it is a sign of looking to induce a bit of "3 way".

I would be happy for a 3 way with AA but would not like a 4th hand along. Reads at the table and your perceived image would give you a good idea of getting the max from this.
