AA limp....

Postby MVPSPORTS » Mon Apr 18, 2005 12:35 am

I've probably posted this kinda thing a dozen times, but I wanna thank BTP every time I pull a move I learned from you guys... Even though I generally lose my ass in the long run, it's nice to feel like I'm getting better...

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (8 handed)

Hero ($154.25)
UTG+1 ($159.65)
MP1 ($118.25)
MP2 ($86)
CO ($31.95)
Button ($258.60)
SB ($59.05)
BB ($109.85)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with [Ad], [Ac].
Hero calls $1, 3 folds, CO calls $1, Button raises to $6, SB raises to $20, 1 fold, Hero raises to $154.25, CO folds, Button folds, SB calls $39.05 (All-In).

The Button was talking shit about people the whole session, and I was dying to have him call and stick him in his place... oh well...

Flop: ($221.30) [4s], [4h], [7d] (2 players, 1 all-in)

Turn: ($221.30) [Kh] (2 players, 1 all-in)

Had a mild heart attack here, as I thought he may have KK..

River: ($221.30) [6h] (2 players, 1 all-in)

Final Pot: $221.30

He had QQ, and was cursing me for like 5 minutes for not raising that PF... all I could do was sit back and smile... :D :D :D

Depending on how agressive the first raiser was and your read on him, you might even just call here and hope he reraises, this is very tricky but if you really want the first raisers stack this probably the only way you are going to get it. The only think he is going to call a raise and reraise is going to be the other AA, or KK. You played this hand well fine and you won a nice pot so dont listen to me :lol: .

Do you think it's worth it to call and risk him not reraising v. chasing him w/ the overbet...? Also, if he calls, I'm going to SERIOUSLY push the flop, and I'm not sure he would've chased w/ anything but the AA or maybe KK... But, at least I woulda got an extra $14 out of him...

I'm fond of the limp reraise all in at least here, there is money in the pot in case they both fold. The real power is that at least the reraises is likely to call even though he is short stacked, and you don't have to sweat AA holding up against two hands.

I really think that you played the hand right, you would have to be pretty damn sure that he is going to reraise, if not you are allowing him to see a flop with the only added reward being $15. I was point out another possible option.
