Any other ways to play this?

This situation was very frustrating, I wouldnt mind one caller to my flop bet but the two of them helped build the pot so much that I got commited with my AQ Top Pair OOP vs two opponents from a field of 4 preflop callers! Eek, not to great...

So, any other lines to take here???

A good result but Im unhappy with commiting so much (over 100BB) by the turn. I felt this was my only move as betting any less [but enough to protect hand against draws] would commit me anyway and checking leaves the huge pot open for a bluff.

I felt my only option was to stick it all in to protect my hand from the flush draw and hope both of them had a weaker ace or drawing (unlikely really)

damn you getting plenty of action on a 6bb raise huh?

you played this just fine.. i dont know why you feel like you should be less aggressive. putting them all in was just a little over the pot size so that was a good bet.

just scared one of them had ak or trips really, i lack confidence when it comes to pushing with this type of hand. This is probably cause i multi-table and currently dont use reads [something i'll start soon for moving to 50nl]

the only hands you really have to worry about are 66 and 88. Its pretty unlikely he has either and its pretty likely he pays off with Ax. Well played.

I don't see how you can put people on quads or 88 here. 88 wont still be in on the turn with the A high flop and you cant consider quads.

At the type of table where you get 5 to the flop after a 6x raise its very likely there could be a 6 in here somewhere. These guys are obviously coming in with crap.

I think the way its played is really the only way to do this. I think you loose a stack lot of the time though. If you check the turn any Ax you have beat pushes and its harder to call then to push yourself. So you are at a disadvantage to the hands you beat as well as those that beat you. Pushing the turn is probably the optimum line. Its ugly but still best.

i ment that people like calling raises with PPs. Im not saying fold incase someone has the 66 or 88, im just saying preflop preople call with PPs. I still play this pretty aggressivly.

Ni Han.

I think it was played fine. I'd be a bit worried about someone having the 6, but not much you can do bout that...
