play it normal,, raise along the way.. going in all in at preflop or something doesn't make them jump in, it just raise suspicion on your cards and fold them, you earn only the blinds..

if i'm the first to make a move then i usually raise, if there is a small raise already i tend to call it and push after the flop. If there is a big raise i try to push preflop. But i tend to vary it up.

i never slowplay my aces, do it and you'll get a badbeat. best thing here would be to raise, and bet strong on the flop. going allin might not get u any callers and you might end up collecting blinds only.

Of corse it will depend on the situation ie if anyone is in the pot already and what position im in so on... But generally i'll raise and re-raise if i dont get a call im a but gutted but what the hay a win is a win. Some times i'll think about how / if i could have made a bit more from the pot but often i think i play it wight. The hard one is folding AA after a poor flop or someone maybe hitting a straight or flush, now laying down AA theres another thing.

Ill do it the abc way, raise reraise, thats the easiest part, the hardest part is (like xxxbchxxx) knowing when ur beat on the flop and have to let it go, thats the difficult part off playing Aces, betting preflop Aces is just the easiest thing in poker.

Allin, slow play is a fishy way, becos it is just a pair so if u go against all the players u will lose only play slow if u are on the dealer position if noone called before, but raise is better

I think the best thing is to go all-in... if someone before you has already pushed all-in it's a good thing, you don't have any decisions to make, you just go all-in too... But there are times, against very tight players where a slowplay of AA can win the whole game, especially in HU... usually, when I go all-in in the early stages of a tourney, it's a shame that everybody folds and I tend to win only a small pot that's why a 3-times raise is a good idea, although a bit risky

I often bet 3x big blind in cash games and wait for call to push all-in in flop or turn (depends the board). But i wish for a 3-bet before flop to push all-in instantly. In tournaments depends on many things (stack,position,opponents etc.) I prefer to play them more carefully.

Posted by IslandJack: In a limit cash geme... slow play usually. In a No Limit tournament, raise or reraise...or all-in, depends.
Slow playing in limit, yes, way to go (?) If there is one game where you should JAM your string hands, is limit. And slowplaying a pair in limit is pretty much close to suicide

= NO All in
