    Default AA vs flop minraise and overcall

    Reads: Button has (seemingly) been minraising every damn time so I'm not too worried about his range. But the unknown BB is what I'm mainly worried about.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    UTG ($55.40)
    MP ($112.55)
    Hero ($95)
    Button ($123.90)
    SB ($83)
    BB ($92.55)

    Preflop: Hero is CO with A, A.
    2 folds, Hero raises to $4, Button calls $4, 1 fold, BB calls $3.

    Flop: ($12.50) 4, 2, 5 (3 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $8, Button raises to $16, BB calls $16, Hero calls $8.

    Turn: ($60.50) J (3 players)
    BB checks, Hero checks, Button checks.

    River: ($60.50) 9 (3 players)
    BB bets $50, Hero calls $50, Button folds.

    Final Pot: $160.50

    flattin ur 4bets, makin u tilt
    i think u can bet 25 on the turn and fold to a raise, 25 seems weak but i dont think they can raise with worse and betting more and folding doesnt seem to be an option with stack sizes...as played looks like youre beat

    That is when I have the most equity though. Figure, that even against a set I've got 6 outs, two pair I've got 9 on flop then 12 on turn. I wouldn't mind seeing a river here myself and would hate to fold after building a pot. Villain overcalls the flop with what? OESD (either the 3 or the top end) and 2 pair+.

    i think anyone with a strong draw will call your bet regardless...it's mainly to see if someone has a set or made straight. but then again, if they're smart, they would smooth call and you're left in the same situation.

    Also, it would suck to call a push when some lags will do that with the OESD or even pair plus OESD. I like the flop call. Once the overcaller checks the turn a 1/2 bet then fold would be optimal and I could check/behind the river. Now, if villain pushes river I'm FUBARed.

    WE tlaked about this hand yesterday.

    I have thought about it and talked with other good players.

    Seems like you took the right line, however that river might even be a fold simply because BB is unlikely to bluff here leading into 2 other players
