I don't have a hand history, but it's a online game.
Table is five handed, I'm on button with KK and raise to 5. Big blind calls. Standard player, maybe looser and more passive than normal. Flop comes AA2. I think it was rainbow. Action goes check, bet 6, nearly insta-raise to 12, raise to 36, insta-raise to 60, I have about $60 left, I type "lol" in chat and fold. There's really no way the guy has QQ here right? No way the guy is completely bluffing? |

I don't like reraising the flop unless you plan on folding to a repop.
He doesn't have anything less than an ace here, and I don't think he'd be so aggressive with a weaker ace than AK really. I like fold.

There is a way, but it is unlikely. You're getting a pretty good price but I still think the correct move is to fold.

Personally I don't think the fourth bet from villain was a very good idea either. I can't think of a hand that would benefit from making 4 bets on the flop. If he had any less than AK he's really asking for trouble.
I think, actually, villain's probably got the stone cold quad aces. At least, I hope he does, that would have been a sick hand call.

I didn't think about calling at the time, but I see how it might work better. I call and reevaluate on the turn, if he bets about $20 into a $35 pot, I can still call and see the river and lose slightly less than I did raising to 36 on the flop. That's valid. I could see calling the turn and then folding the river if he bets again as a line that might make more sense. And maybe win more money off a weaker hand. I take it that is why you would want to call there.
I re-raised because it is possible I am ahead and getting re-re-raised means I'm more than likely behind. A min-check-raise on an AA2 flop against a button raise doesn't necessarily mean an Ace, even though in this case it seems more likely. Any pocket pair is reasonable for him to hold on the check-raise, and it's possible many people would not raise an Ace there. A stronger player would probably raise (although for more money and not as quick) with air here. Thanks for the input. |
