Not criticizing, just questioning


Why are you not betting AA pre flop and more on the flop

He had 12 outs that would of beaten you?

How in the hell did rotgut ever build a stack like that if he makes terrible plays like that?

All in all, I can barely see a good play from anyone. Were these folks historically making crazy moves like this a lot? I realize it's short handed and maybe, in some remote circumstances, could be understandable to not re-raise with AA preflop, but come on. I consider it pretty insane to not reraise with AA under 99.9% of circumstances.

Just about every other decision made by all 3 of you was pretty questionable.

I would have probably raised a bit more pre-flop. I always like to be heads up with AA or KK. Just me though.

the reason why I didnt raise AA preflop was because I knew bigstack would, we had been playing me and him at that table for like half an hour, and he was simply anihilating every small stack who joined ( 5 or 10 dollar ones ) by over betting them. This had the effect of making them fold like 80% of the times, to raise 10% and when this happened he folded. or call the other 10% ending up ruining em either first, second or thierd they went to the showdown.

In short, he used hes huge stack to mob the floor with the smallstacks. So I knew he was gonna raise preflop, raise at the flop, and most likely set us both all in if I didnt show too much agression, wich would make him fold.

if I had reraised him preflop he would either have just folded straight away, or folded at the flop. Thats why I didnt.
