oddcall: folds
IckeyMouse: folds
zombewaz: calls $1.50
*** FLOP *** 3 7 Q
SillyString: checks
zombewaz: bets $2
SillyString: raises $5 to $7
zombewaz: calls $5
*** TURN *** J
SillyString: bets $16.45 and is all-in
zombewaz: folds
SillyString collected $18.55 from pot


Do I need to slam the pedal down on the turn or is that stupid considering the J the that fell on the turn? Maybe I am beat by QQ, JJ or QJ already. Dumb push or how do I maximize my profit from AA?
Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.

Preflop: Raise more, about $4 would be quite good. He must bleed when he pees after calling that (credit to Aokrongly for that hilarious phrase ). Reraise like 2.5x makes the pot bigget (which is good) but still gives good odds to s00ted connectors, that want to break & destack pocket rockets.

I like flop raise.

When you push the turn you'can risk being called by stronger hands only, and fold out weaker hands. You don't want to fold out weaker hands. You want to set your bet to amount, that will put the weak queen to tough decision...and be called. 1/2-2/3 pot would be quite in order, in case he had 2 spades or some weird str8 draw.

On the river I'd just show down my aces or value bet it 1/4-1/3 of the pot if you read your opponent as loose fishy caller and not tricky sandbagger.
