Limping in with Pocket AA

[dms88]

i have limped with AA a few times and each time it taught me a lesson lol. one time i limped and someone flopped two pair with 84 off. then again even when i dont limp with them and raise or even push all in with them they still dont hold up for me so it doesnt matter in my opinion

It doesn't matter how you play them when crap like this happens.

Despite this crap, I'm up a buck on the session! Playing 4 tables at once is absolutely the way to go. Especially during late night happy hour x2 and those FTPs doubling again on the top 2 tables for the Take 2 promo.

lol just got dealt AA, AKs, AKs, KQ on the 3 remaining tables. Wound up losing $2 on these hands despite playing them all correctly. (edit...make that up $4...called a $5 all in with JJ 2 hands down the line against TT.) Wish I could have had this streak during the BAP game.

Won with the AA, lost with one of the AKs to an all in where I hit 2 pair and he tripped jacks. Damn it.

Moral of this story is: Betting rockets big will kill you when KK calls and hits. Limping with them will work because you will hit AQQ on flop with 2 people in the hand and unless this is your BAP Omaha Hi/Lo game, nobody will be holding the QQ.
