Hello everybody
Do you always go to ALL IN with aces?
If not, how do you play this combination?
Thanks for answers!
Hi,
I just finished a $1.10 re-buy tournament at
pokerstars.
Blinds: 2000/4000 ante:600
Stack sizes: UTG=142.000 UTG+2=115.000
I was UTG+2 and had aces.
UTG raises to 10.000, UTG+1 folds and I re-raise to 28.000.
Everyone folds and the action is on the first raiser who calls after thinking a while.
Pot is about 60.000 roughly.
Flop: Js 5s 3d, UTG checks.
I think about it for a while and come up with an idea to induce a
bluff
So i go all-in with about 87.000. UTG thinks a whole while and puts me on a bluff (telling me later about it, thats why i know it worked

)
The cards flip over and he shows qq.
Usually i would've played this hand totally different by betting a little on the flop, because i also held the As.
But now i am trying a lot of different ways to play the same hand

.
There are so many ways of playing one hand that your opponents can't figure you out anymore

.
Usually no-one likes to tell others about their secret plays, but IMO the more you share the better it is for poker itself
Hope this helps a bit
