I don't like the big turn raise, I like to keep the pots small and see a showdown with these kind of hands.

Thats what I was thinking as soon as he reraised.


What kind of raising do you like to do in relation to the pot on the flop/turn in a situation like that?

Miffed22001 is on a distinguished road
 Even at 50nl it looks like some people are mini raising pps or very strong hands still.
Preflop is fine, not sure about the flop. I'd let him lead out the betting, if he checks i have a go at him on the turn but am very wary of a reraise (set/stonger ace) His turn push tells you that your beat here imo so i hope you put it down. Im not married to this but i'd try to push him off here unless he comes back strong, i dont want a showdown i dont think.
My only criticism is that i dont lead out here but i would reraise any flop bet he makes to see where i stand.

Yeah, I won the hand by luck hitting my flush...

He had AAA... Should have let him lead the betting.

Those mini raises which me made on turn smell. If I have mediocre holding I like to re-raise them there a bit, if they make a re-raise it is time for me to fold. This way you will save money on later streets.
