AA vs QQ Postflop Texture

Merge Network $0.02/$0.04 No Limit Hold'em - 8 players
DeucesCracked Poker Videos Hand History Converter

BB: $3.80
UTG: $1.73
UTG+1: $4.00
Hero (MP1): $2.27
MP2: $3.86
CO: $7.67
BTN: $1.94
SB: $4.57

Pre Flop: ($0.06) Hero is MP1 with A A
UTG calls $0.04, 1 fold, Hero raises to $0.16, 1 fold, CO calls $0.16, 3 folds, UTG calls $0.12

Flop: ($0.54) 9 K 2 (3 players)
UTG checks, Hero bets $0.40, CO raises to $0.88, UTG folds, Hero raises to $2.11 all in, CO folds

I actually have a lot of problems playing aces, and they have been quite a bit less profitable for me than other premium hands, so here's my question.

In this postflop texture is it justifiable to just shove his raise, or is a flat call a better play against a 22/11 player? What could be done to make this a more profitable hand?

Re: AA vs QQ Postflop Texture

Shove seems right.. No point calling on flop then turn come K and your dead.. Or 10-Q of Dia and your guessing as to whether or not your good.. Youll probably get called by KQ and AK if you just shove plus combo draws that your also ahead of

Re: AA vs QQ Postflop Texture

Your down to just call the flop then get the stack in with K on turn? Sounds sketchy imo

It's 4NL, so obv. villain is much better than 2NL. In any event, easy shove since hero has 42bb and the pot is already 45bb.
