I'll go with Irexes here and bet 200-300 to build the pot.

Before reading anyone else opionions on what to do i thought well we are prolly up at least one AK or AQ, maybe a couple of suited connectrs, maybe a higher pp, buts its doubtful cause i would see them betting that on the flop. The randoms aces are drawing dead here and the higher pp is drawing to a 2 outer. like marm said you cant be scared of something drawing to that cause then you might as well fold your not gonna know what they have till the hands over. to me, the best play here is to check behind, hope that ace gets paired and bets with a caller. the pp or suited connector will fold here and you will left against a dead hand. just slow play to the end you should take it down.

I would be tempted to call PF.

On the flop I bet about half the pot. Hope someone is slow playing a big pair.

Another consideration is this:
If you end up having to show the hand down, do want the table to remember that you a) checked/slow played a monster or b) bet out when you made a big hand? I would rather have the image of the latter, but I guess it depends on your style of play.

my thought are someone put in a good bet, and two people called on a usually tight table, someone probbaly has something.

Pot building bet.

One of these guy is probably going for the CR... Especialy hand shacking dude. I give him the opportunity to raise and I bet 30% of the pot.

KJ

i bet 1/2 to 3/4 pot.
i doubt youll get action.
even if ace hits on turn, youll get little action in a 4 way pot @ a table this tight.

well true about the showdown, you dont want many people to pick up on your slow play style. but whatever you do your play will be judged accordingly later. if you check, later your checks will be suspicious and you may be able to draw more cards when you dont have anything. and if you bet, similar bets later will bring a bigger punch and give you more opportunities to bluff. its all about your choice, id say you could play it either way, i would probably check.

Default Here comes the turn

I considered slow playing here, but in position I want the table to think I'm stealing, maybe getting AK/AQ in UTG+1 to play back at me by coming over the top. I also want to nourish an aggressive image at the table, so that I can get calls on my monsters later.

I bet 500 into the $875 in the pot. UTG+1 folds quickly, MP considers momentarily then calls (I have no idea what he has), CO folds.

Here comes the Turn. Board reads:



We still have our set of 2's. Pot is now $2075. We've both got about $800 in chips left. MP quickly checks. What do we do now?
