Did I just get really lucky here w/ AA?

    Default Did I just get really lucky here w/ AA?

    I have really been struggling when playing Poket Aces. $0.50-$0.50 No Limit. Raised to 2BB hoping someone would raise. No one did and 5 guys called. Warning bells going off already. Flop was a bust, didn't think anyone had came in with 68 so I bet 2x the pot to try and shake any str8 chasers. Three guys called! What the heck! Trips, two pair, str8? Was I correct in betting again? The same three guys called my next $15 bet! Fk! Pot was up to $100. Looked like I was doomed! Was this correct play? Just came on the table and had no real reads on other players. What hand would you put these guys on?

    Sry for the full hand history but the converter is not working with PokrtRoom hands 4 me.

    I'd say it's well played. I probably would have bet higher on the turn. $15 into a $45 pot seems fairly weak, but maybe the right play since there's no real draws on the board still, and it would let you get away (maybe) if reraised all in by a likely set.

    That's the problem with the minraise; plenty of people will play 86 there. The flop bet is fine. With that many calls I'd maybe even C/R the turn -- you'll get more info if someone pushes at you there.

    Seems fine overall, though. Board doesn't get threatening (exc. A3?) and no one's doing anything interesting, so you only fear two dumb pair or those ... whatchamacalit ... sets.
