I finally got my aggro on

[Maverick]

I'm finally in the mindset of not being a chicken when you like your hand. I made a feeler at this flop and copped some aggression, but instead of worrying about higher hands I worried about my AA...and it payed off.

Was I right this time?

I just didn't see someone calling that raise without a PP. Yay.

You would think that, but at that level I've seen people do stuff like that with as marginal a hand as A8o. Crazy stuff. Anyways, nice push!

Dont worry about your Aces on these flops...push everytime when that guy's raising preflop.

Much better! The argument could be made for a bigger preflop reraise, but that's no biggy - you did fine as you were.
