Message: [QUOTE="300HPGOD, post: 6452608, member: 305911"] Pre flop is fine of course raising to 3x with AA. On the flop after getting two callers and one of them donk leading into us I would raise here unless I knew I was up against someone who was super aggro but backs down anytime they get fought back at. Without knowing that, I like raising the flop here to get value from hands that we would think would lead here like Qx and some 9x and those would probably still call our raise. There are no flush draws on the board so interesting the villain would be leading like they are afraid of a check behind by you so that makes me lean a little more towards they are 9x and not Qx. Given that I guess you could make the case to just call since less 9x would call a raise than Qx but I still like raising here to build the pot and get more value now and future streets when we do get called. On the turn as played you get bet at again after just calling on the flop. I think raising here is fine although I like it more on the flop than on the turn since on the turn with only one more card to come their calling range should be tighter on the turn than on the flop so you might fold out some hands here you dont want to fold by raising but since you didnt raise the flop I think you have to target one pair hands now for value. The river is not the best card since we would think their Qx holdings that would overcall pre would be Qx that is at least 9+. We own 2 aces so most likely they are Q9 (which would be really bad) through KQ which now just got there and QQ (which I doubt) was always there. 9x probably isnt calling the turn raise without two pair so they are Qx here a lot and of the 5 logical Qx 3 are beating you (not taking into account combos but simplifying). Plus any J10 that would have played this way got there too. I would have to think Q10 and QJ hands are not calling raise on turn and leading river so I am not sure what one pair hands call the river raise you make. At this point, its take your showdown value and hope your AA is good or fold. I would at least think about in this spot that I am no good but I dont think I would fold it since there are enough 2NL players here that think a one pair Qx is still good here. It would be scary to me though to think what Qx is actually leading the river like this when an overcard came and we raised on the turn. I would be scared Im beat but I think I would be a little married to my aces here and take the showdown value. [/QUOTE]
