how to beat pocket aces?

[psyk0ttik]

It really depends on the situation. PP's are beaten by a majority of hands on the play, so it all comes down to the 5ers.

10j suited is the best hand against AA. I always put opponenthey rais on AA when they raise big.

have you guys ever heard of variance????WTF would you call me dumb if i told you YOUR SUPPOSED TO LOSE WITH ACES!! hence the word variance... aces are good about 70% of the time so thats means if you had them 10 times in a row your probably going to lose with them at least 3 or so times give or take... it just variance, hell you could win with them ten times in a row or you could lose with them ten times in a row, its just variance, and yes actually alot of people actually misplay thier aces becuase they think they have a lock hand and they min raise or dont raise at all and they let the garbage hands that are gonna hit the miracle flop in for free... so its ur own damn fault, and actually i heard someone say just shove with them??!! NO dont shove with ur aces try to get max value with them!! Just make sure u raise with them pre flop if you have them and im talking min 3x BB MIN! the more people in the pot the more likely your gonna get beat with ur aces!! gl all

In the short term the variance may not show because its too small a sample size but just like with flipping a coin the more you flip it the more it balances out to be 50-50 or in this case the more hands you observe or play the more the AA is going to win 70% of the time or whatever the real number is

If you're trying it on pokerstars, all you have to do is call 38 ofsuited...that's it! GL

Pockets Rockets preflop give you the edge over 'every single player' in the hand. Heads up and you'll win 7 out of 10 hands. That's not, however, 9 out of ten,but 7 out of ten. they are going to lose nearly one-third of the time. In the long run you are going to make money with them. Ok, that's heads up ...

What about AA multiway ? In a ten-handed game AA falls to about 31% ! Bad right? NO! I'll take them every time. You see, you're going to only win 1 out of every 3 hands i this situation BUT you are getting 8:1 on your money ! What's that mean really ? Say eveyone puts 100 into the pot. You lose with AA two times but win one time. You invest $300 to win $1000 every three hands. That's +$700 every three hands more or less. Not bad Charlie! That's worse case scenario, say, fixed limit. In no-limit you can often protect the AA by betting more...That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
