It sounds like you’re talking about limit hold’em. If so, I’d keep going with the aces.

If it’s no limit, then your aces are likely in big trouble. If someone bets, you raise, and someone reraises behind you, the reraiser almost always has a huge hand (but possibly can have a huge draw rather than a hand like a set).

If I do what you’ve suggested in this article, say playing aggressively preflop with AA in the middle position, and the other two players called my raise.

Then on the flop, the early position player bets large. I raise. The late position player re-raises. The earlier position calls. And I also call.

And the turn card does not help me. No A.

Should I slow down or continue to attack if the flop is drawy? e.g. [3s] [4s] [5h]

Should I slow down or continue to attack if the flop is dry? e.g. [3h] [8s] [Jd]

Thanks a lot~

I can imagine situations where not 3betting aces would be profitable (against a shortstacked in a heads-up spot) but not many reasons to limp/call or limp/reraise pre-flop. These are, in any case, exceptions.

I’ll be sure to pick up the book too !

Sorry for the relative lack of new postings on here recently. I decided to devote that time to getting the book out faster. Editing is pretty time consuming it turns out.
