    It's hard to find yourself in a 3 suited raggy flop where over playing your AA is possible.

    This is exactly how I want my Aces to play out.

    Second pair calling me down, you had it even better because his "Ace Kicker" is tainted. You had him drawing to 2 outs.

    I do believe you over bet the flop just a bit, but it doesn't seem to have made a difference.

    ....when you raised pre-flop. If you limped in with AA for some silly reason then you might occassionally have to fear the garbage flop if you get played back at.

    Thanks for the analysis guys.

    I also play at RVP. Don't be hesitant to raise more preflop, like 3.5x the BB, especially at such low levels where fish are abundant.

    i've found that even raising 4x the BB (40 cents) people will still call you down. raising 1 dollar then people will think you're bluffing and call you down. raising all in preflop they'll think you're a maniac and call you anyway. no one ever folds in those penny games, especially at RVP. if you stick to those levels you will take a lot of bad beats. i'd recommend moving to 25/50 cent limit. you'll make about the same money, with less variance.
