    Default AA Tricky Spot

    Ok here is a spot I want to see how you guys would play. Since I need to work on my AA game... I was not at the table long, so no strong reads here. All i know is the guy I was up against (URMYBAILOUT) was six tabling and appeared to play a fairly tight game.



    Stage #1356710263: Holdem No Limit $0.25 - 2009-04-07 02:00:15 (ET)
    Table: HARLEY DR (Real Money) Seat #3 is the dealer
    Seat 3 - SILENT_AC3S ($48.72 in chips)
    Seat 4 - EL NINO90 ($24.75 in chips)
    Seat 5 - LONMAN ($23.97 in chips)
    Seat 6 - URMYBAILOUT ($36.75 in chips)
    Seat 1 - PIROJOK_85 ($16.65 in chips)
    Seat 2 - SUBBANG ($17.43 in chips)
    EL NINO90 - Posts small blind $0.10
    LONMAN - Posts big blind $0.25
    *** POCKET CARDS ***

    URMYBAILOUT - Checks
    SILENT_AC3S - Bets $3.85
    URMYBAILOUT - Raises $14.15 to $14.15
    Now what? (And why)
    Thanks!

    $3.85 was probably too small of bet for that large of a pot. he may have thought you were weak and decided to bluff. but my guess is he flopped a set. i'd probably fold. he could also have something like jj, qq or kk. but mostly likely he has eights or nines.
    I'm not a poker player. I'm a tax collector on people who suck at math.

    You dont have enough information to know whether he'd open limp TT+ so I'd rule out an overpair here. An open limp and flat call PF is often a small to medium pocket pair so I'd also guess he caught his set. I'm happy to make a note of the play and fold this time. Just pay lots of attention to his future play, especially when he's UTG.

    You should have bet more on the flop. I don't think you can rule out something like TT or JJ. His range is going to be more than sets so I would just ship it in. If he has a set make a note for next time.
