Pushing Hard with AA

Postby Xaston » Tue Jan 17, 2006 11:10 pm

Just right, or a little too much action? I feel like generally I don't put in this many bets with UI AA but in these spots it felt like +EV, your thoughts?

Party Poker 10/20 Hold'em (6 max, 3 handed)

Preflop: Hero is Button with [Ad], [As].
Hero raises, 1 fold, BB calls.

Flop: (4.50 SB) [4s], [6d], [2h] (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, BB calls.

Turn: (3.25 BB) [8c] (2 players)
BB bets, Hero raises, BB 3-bets, Hero caps, BB calls.

River: (11.25 BB) [Tc] (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, BB calls.

Final Pot: 13.25 BB

As long as you were getting action, can you push too hard with the best hand?

I assume you won the first one...the second one is a tad scarier with the pair, but, MP raised first, doubtful he had a 7, and you can't put him on quads.

3 handed it would have to be like a 4 straight-4 flush board or something along that before I stop pushing aces, you played hand 1 the same I would've.

Hand 2 he shouldn't have a 7 and cap preflop but you never know I guess. I guess he could've had 6's possibly, but I think KK and QQ are more likely. At least you know he doesn't have Jacks.

I don't think he would've stopped with the straight, its possible he hit like his 4-8 two pair I guess but if he did I'll live with the consequences.

Hand 1
Depends on reads, but I've seen action like that with villain having TP.

Hand 2
Looks good to me. My guess is that he has an overpair that you beat.
wwcrd?
