100NL: Extracting most value from AA facing a 3bet 100NL: Extracting most value from AA facing a 3bet

10-30-2008 , 03:29 AM
BB is 13/8 over 400 with a 3bet of 3% and MP2 sits at 13/7 with no 3bets over 200 hands.

I can and usually do 4bet PF here but am not sure if calling his 3bet here allows me to extract more value from the hand. He may be able to get away from hands like AK, QQ, JJ if I push him out now but might be able to get him AI on the flop with these weaker holdings. MP2's range imo is almost strictly low-mid pocket pairs after he also calls the 3bet.

Anyways, is this all poor thinking? Is this a clear 4bet to something ~40$? As played, am I shoving this flop over the BBs flop bet?

You are not folding this.

Preflop, calling is ok, you will have position an MP3 isnt always going to call. I would usually 4 bet though.

i wont call AA with guy behind me, but as played and as VinnyVT says u cant screw this hand no matter what u do EV wise. just call. guy behind u will have JJ/QQ too sometimes his range is definately not just low-mid pockets liek u says.

I like to get aa heads up so I'm raising to 65/70 to make mp3 fold or get it all in with either one. With stack sizes no one is just calling.

unfortunately this is usually more -EV line then smoothing.

I play the same way pre and push the flop. JJ-KK aren't going anywhere on this flop.
