Playing AA correctly

[davex1488]

yeah slow play doesnt make sense at all with aces, each bet under 6BB is like card for free to opponent

i always reraise with my ace's.... so u can win....

[pikeboy412]

i always play aces differently depending on the situation/game/chipstack,etc. but i do feel you need to at least reraise with them because slow playing barely ever works out

[Dyrantula]

Raise, Re-raise, Shove.. No calling no limping. Raise for maximum value we don't want those limpers seeing a cheap flop right?

[ProBlackbird]

Actually I never tried slow play AA. Just pot betting. Depending on the flop I will push or not. But not will I slow play it.

it doesnt seem to mater how i play them, my rockets get cracked 80 to 90% of the time.

They say pocket aces, you win small or you lose "BIG",,,seems to work out for me that way...

[ojwood]

either a big re-raise or shove all-in with me now. if someone calls they have either a smaller pocket pair or high cards like AK AQ AJ KK QQ or KQ which you'd have dominated anyway. dont give the chance to people with the likes of 78 89 9,10 etc to hit a straight make them fold before the flop and narrow down the field to which you have dominated 92% of the time (i wouldnt say KK or QQ is dominated as the amount of times ive seen them win over aces even though mathmatically they are)

i folded pocket 6's today as UTG raised to £1.20, I called, BB re-raises £3. UTG 3 bets with £6... alarm bells ring (aces are about somewhere with betting like that) i chuck my hand to the much, BB goes all-in, UTG calls.

BB shows the pocket rockets and UTG i persume is feeling sheepish, turns pocket queens, nothing comes to help the queens and aces have it. when 3-4 raises have come pre-flop it usally always means aces.... tread carefully
