    a little town called none of your goddamn business
    I find its usually better to value bet on the end in these situation. Put in a decent, 1/2-3/4 pot bet. Most people with AA feel forced to call.

    BTW if you put him on a high PP, then why call the flop bet?

    Push Push Push. You did the right thing. I dont believe in playing these hands weak. Either the person really has something and your going to destack them, or they dont and they are going to fold no matter what on the river. Also, it only takes 1 destacking to make up for 3 or 4 times of getting value bets in.

    Remember, taking down a big pot typically means that not only did you have a great hand, but your opponent had a decent hand as well.

    flattin ur 4bets, makin u tilt
    raising the turn to 12-15 forces him to call the rest on the river when an unappealing card falls (4,5,6,7)
    My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

    Would you have raised to this amount if you didn't have the full house?

    If your bet size broadcasts your hand, don't be surprised if a good player picks up on the information you're giving him. The minimum raise seems to work fine against terrible players, though.
