AA

OK NL 100 hand at commerce. I am new to the table. I transferred tables so I have about $210 in chips. I get dealt AA 3 off the button. 3 limpers to me. I raise to $15. Button calls. UTG+1 calls.

Flop comes 22q. check to me

I bet $30. Button folds. UTG+1 calls.

Turn is a k. no flush possibilities

check to me. I bet $40. UTG+1 goes all in.

What do I do?

I'm still a newbie, but I put him on A2s or pocket QQ

I don't think he's bluffing, he knows you have a good hand.

Fold!! IMHO

For how much did he go all-in?

Should have pushed more preflop. NL games are too loose in B&M casinos.

I'm betting he had Kx.

His all in has me covered

Easy call. You're only beaten by a 2 or KK and QQ. You raised preflop so that leaves KK or QQ. Easy call (KQ loses to your Aces and Deuces).

*agrees with 'rilla* So what was the outcome?

I was just making sure I played it right. In my mind, the $15 bet preflop eliminated everything but qq, ak, or a very loose kq. I didn't think he had kk because I figured he would have raised me preflop. I would have bet he had kq. Unfortunately I was wrong. He had 82 of diamonds. Yes, you read that right, 82 of diamonds. I was pissed, but in my mind I played it right. I was just making sure no one else saw it differently.

They're red AND sooted.

that has to be my favorite line, but they were suited. That was exactly what the guy said. Oh well, I'll be looking for him next time I am there. $15 preflop call with 82. I about fell out of my chair when I saw his hand. I was hoping if he had a duece it was at least ducks he was holding, but nooooooo. LOL. Oh well, that's poker
