5NL - AA Line check

[Savy]

70 is tooooooooooo big and we fold out lots of stuff we get value from if we bet smaller.

Checking turn is pretty bad imo. Especially on this particular card where some ppl might convince themselves you are continuing with Ax.

I'd probably just go like 0.27 / 0.65 / shove river.

I don't understand why that's bad, that's basically what I want? Is 27c not too small to be betting on the flop? I spoke about this with someone and they suggested betting smaller on the turn (no specifics) and I'm just not really all that familiar with betting so small.

No it doesn't. It's 5NL, try experimenting. You would be surprised how many people call PSB's thinking it's a bluff/scared bet. Also, if he has a hand like AQ/a FD he is calling 0.70 just the same as he calls 0.45.

Still tooooo big, was tempted to do something like this and I don't think it's bad or anything I just think there's better ways of doing it.

You have aces! If you want to play around with pot control and being tricky, wait till you 3b some Q9s hand and hit top pair.

I wasn't trying to be tricky or do anything special really. I felt at the time that this was the best way to play it but I was aware that this was due to the awkward stack sizes I left on the turn.
