    shouldn't he have bet more preflop, being a 3-way pot? shouldn't we protect more the AA vs 2 random calls preflop?

    Just asking

    Played well. Got all your money in well ahead.

    3bet raise could be bigger, but I don't hate it. We are on button with aces, we want action.

    I'd bet slightly more on flop to protect against draws, I'd probably pot it.

    Not hugely necessary since UTG limped and you don't expect him to usually call a 3bet.

    I now looked at the result. He got this money in, all right, but isn't it a little late? I mean, villain has now (on turn) a lot of possible hands that easily beat AA. In my opinion you should make the decision earlier.

    Somebody said that with AA you can win small (raise big preflop I think) or lose big (wait for cards to come and improve villain).

    Where am I mistaking?

    You want to get the max value from your hand, not the minimum just to protect your hand.... you want to charge him as much as you think villain will pay with his worst hands and draws.. most draws wont get there.

    In this hand hero accomplished getting the money in with the best hand and got paid by a draw, this time villain got there, but long run its more money for us.

    Trying to make worst hands and draws fold by overbetting, its a mistake IMO.

    Exactly, the only hands calling a shove on the flop is hands that have us beat - set or straight.

    I think villain probably thought he had best hand ott, he would have called without the flush draw.
