    Default WTF hand with AA $22 1R1A

    There were 3 tables left in the $22 1R1A on PokerStars when this hand happened. Villain had only been at the table for 17 hands and he was 18/18. I had no reads.

    Should I just jam the flop?

    He instashoved the turn. I have 298,055 behind. Thoughts?

    DEFINITELY shove the flop, I think just calling vs. this sizing is really bad.

    The turn is an annoying spot but let's fold. He either has some type of pair on the flop or else he flopped a monster, and I don't think there are enough paired hands that you beat anymore. Wouldn't be shocked to see a retardedly played JJ though.

    Yeah the flop is one of those spots where him leading into you is very often a worse overpair. You're comitted against him at this point on that board, so if he has a set or two pair there's not much you can do at this point.

    The problem with just calling is not that so much he'll suck out (with his very likely TT-QQ/pair+gutshot), it's that he might FOLD on the turn if a scare card comes, like an ace/king/4th straighty card that he doesn't hit/etc.
    Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.
