I was going to tell you to call and shove on an AAK board, but then I remembered this is my weak point in NL ;__;

shove...probably an underpair and AJ-...
but then what do i know...there was an eternally long thread about the range you should put people in this situation, and no common answer...

(that was before it turned into a discussion about blockers)

you are likely in against pp's and AK. if its AA, its dumb, but possible. i stick it and feel good about it. not all limp/RRes are AA.
LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

Obv it's a fold or shove. Calling is horrible, 'cause you're committed, prolly not enough behind to have any FE if you get it in on the flop and don't really want to have to make any of those decisions if an A or K hits the board. And maybe if you're lucky your PF shove will fold out one of the two vils.

I wouldn't hate a fold here too much either, esp as you may end up 3-way even if u shove...
