Correct Fold - AA??

Villain is 14/5 over 80 hands

Push Flop, lead turn? Could be a set. I had AA and KK's cracked already today so I could have been a little gun shy too.

looks like a set line. i cant fold AA, so i cant say if its that good of a fold or not, but it isnt horrible IMO.

I'm probably calling, just because it could be also be KK or QQ and if you throw either one of those into his range, you're not very far behind. (You're actually ahead if his range is KK,QQ,TT,44,55.) Tough decision though and I don't blame you for folding against a guy with these stats.

Wouldn't KK raise your PF bet? What if your bet had been less pre-flop ie. 4xBB? KK sure would've raised that, and I think QQ or even AK too. Would've been easier to put him on a hand...

Is it standard or wise to bet AA that strongly from that position? IDK. I just busted my bankroll.

If his range is KK-TT, 55-44, you have a 65% chance to be ahead. Not to mention the chance he is semi-bluffing or has some worse hand. I think you have to call. Another question: what´s the point of such a large raise pre-flop instead of a normal 4BB?

The 6x seemed to be the magic number to eliminate the majority of the field. 3 - 4x wasn't.

yeah, preflop thats too little with aces, most acecracker hands stay in still... you want 99+, Ax to call you when you have aces. if nobody does, oh well.
