Pocket A's whats your decision.

Postby gundog » Fri Jan 22, 2010 8:28 am

Last nightat the Kingy 1st hand after the break, I'm on the button and look down at pocket [As] [Ad].

There are 9 players at the table, blinds are 100/200.

all players call, it my turn to act I raise to 700.
SB calls
BB folds
UTG tanks it for a while and calls
the next 3 fold, remaining 2 players call.

The flop [3h] [7h] [qh]

After the flop all players check to me, I bet 900.
SB instant jams all in with a little over 11.5.

UTG tanks it for sometime and jams all in with a little over 10.

everyone else folds, its my time to make a decision I have 3700 left after my lead out bet, I check my cards to just in case that diamond is a heart.

I'm thinking that SB has flushed it, as for UTG he clipped me earlier when showing weakness.

How do you play it?

First off, with everyone flatting in front of you pre-flop, I would make my raise bigger, probably in the order of 1100.

with so many players limping preflop, i think you have to raise it up more - as soon as one person calls, it prices the rest in to call, and this is bad news when you have aces. i would have made it like 1200-1500 preflop, try and play the pot heads up. this way your decisions come easier.

as played, i think you have to sigh and fold. with a shove and then a call to your bet, i think one of them has flushed. or at least has a monster draw that you are flipping with. something like [kh] [qs] is a definite possibility, and you are only 50% against that hand.

So you were behind, and made the right decision.

I don't know if you're posting this because you want to know if you made the right move, or to show that you would have hit a full house (which is irrelevant)

I first thought was what Scott said - raise preflop was way to small.

The question was whats you decision ?

I was quiet comfortable in my decision, we have all folded a had that eventually turned into a winner. the reason why I posted the final result was more to show the outcome, Scott's and benny the cunt's replies are very helpfull and constructive

i woulda gone all in pre-flop.

I don't think it would have changed the hand, both of those were calling with their hands....

But then, I love aces, even when i am cracked, and in a pub game, all in all the time
