Speaking of poket rockets.... I was in a freeroll. Guy goes all in. i go all in. another guy goes all in. the one has 10 10 other has 66. of course im ahead. Flop is 10 7 6. Need i say anymore? Aces kill ya all the time. But i guess the best strategy is bet it up nig. All in is questionable because of the chance of losing to a draw.

Knowing my luck. I'll slowplay my aces and some BS crap on the river pops up. No more man, A + A = ALL-IN!

ALL IN. Everyone thinks you have aces and you won't get beat. That's what gets you in trouble. My favorite hand, one I won alot of hands either with a showdown or not is King Two. Doesn't matter about suited or not. I won more all-ins with that hand then with AA. AA is the freaking devil and until I win more hands with im'ma continue saying that : AA is the devil!

Why else would the call it weapons of mass distruction??? They can blow up you or your opponent. But either way when you get aces... you got to read ur players to see if they have u beat.

AA should not be played just one way, gotta mix it up... if i have a stack, im usually going to make the same raise anytime i enter a pot, say 5x the BB , then a big bet or an all-in on the flop to any callers.

its not that AA is always bad, its just that when it is, people project it and make it seem so bad while in poker anything can happen.

Look AA always get screwed somehow someway. AA is always beat unless u get 4 aces. Normally the people that would've won fold. but on the other hand if they stay they catch their straight, flush, trips, 2 pair, so on. Just chase 'em out or take the risk by trying to slowplay and trap them.

it depends if you are playing in an actual casino or online, in a casino, assuming youre a young guy like me I would limp in and hope that the sharks would try and bully me and bully them back

That's such a tell though. People are going to know you have the goods. People will fold to you. Why waste the best possible chance of winning. -logan
