Online or offline?! Cause if you're playing them online, it's seems to still be a 50-50 chance if you get a caller...lol

Raise 3x bb + 1bb for every limper that acted before you to isolate. I rase pot every street after that unless if I am re raised then its all in.
I suck pretty much at bet sizing, if someone has raised before me pf, I just make up a higher number to re raise.

I think pooffy has a good point, 3 bb plus 1 bb for every limper. But i have also seen people being UTG and just calling the bb with aces, and waiting for action. this can be risky, but especially in MTT like pokerstars pokerowned, you can get big with that strategy

I see...but what does "limper" mean?
I'm really new in poker so I'm trying to learn some basics...

i however do not buy poofys play on betting automatically every turn or re-raising a raiser - if the flop comes 10,j,q hearts(or something coordinated and suited) and you have two black aces - and two people are betting like mad - you are toast and should fold - far too often people live (and a lot of times die) by aces after the flop - as Kenny says "you got to know when to fold them"

That's really a situational thing. Just one of those things you have to feel for. Table size, players, mtt, sng, or cash... it really varies. I don't think one person can answer. DO PROTECT YOUR HAND!

You can play Aces however you want. Usually you raise preflop thought to try and weed out the average hands. But be careful as poket A's can be cracked like a egg!!!
