Actually, he could have kicked it up a bit PF, but this wasn't really bad.

Not how I do it, but i don't see it as "wrong"

exactly...he got his man to go all-in, drawing dead to a three...just because the three hit doesn't make it a bad play...it could have been played better, and it could have been played safer...but its hardly a shocker...

you do realize the guy with pocket aces, utg+2 is check calling every street? I dont know about you but first off im raising preflop, or reraising for sure, if if i get raised. Flop comes 4 2 5 rainbow I could see a check raise, but a check call? i dont know about that play.

Playing AA like that is a sin. PF he needs to jack it up after he's raised. (isnt that the point of limping with AA?)

flop and turn this ideot check-calling etc..

why?

tell me the equity of calling vs raising?

He is either way the fuck ahead or way behind. It is ridiculous to think that an opponent has more than 3-4 outs against you averaging his hands.

I guess its damage control after the poor pf play. check calling. This is an ok flop imo. I only see a set beating me right now, so I'd bet. Turn play: I muck the best hand.

Turn is insignificant to me however b/c I would have played it differently and A: all the chips would be in the pot before turn, or B: there would be no turn.

I definitly hate the PF play, he calls the BB with 7 people to act after him, he gets the raise hes looking for and then doesnt even reraise...and if he was just calling hes letting a 8 handed flop come down with AA....thats how rockets lose.
