    That flop looks as safe as it gets . Are you afraid on any flop that you are against a set? . You don't want to shut down the hand , you want to get value from worse hands . As played , turn shove would be fine .

    This is a very important point for all beginner players. Its not often you will get a monster so make the most of it when you have a customer. Theres little point in having AA on a safe board if you're gonna overshove the flop or turn and win a small pot just so you can say that AA held up.

    OP, were you aware before the hand that the villain was an apparent idiot? If you were, you could have raised more on the flop and managed to get him to commit on turn. Giving free cards is a jinx, dont do it.

    Hand 1: What the hell are you checking the turn for? That ten doesnt help anybody who opens on the flop.
    Marm is back, maybe. Been off for 3 years. Rusty as Hell.

    Luck is a Residue of Design.
