Another AA hand

[zook]

UTG is laggy, running 30/12 over about 70 hands. MP2 is tight, running 18/3 over 700+ hands.

Please steer me right here. I think I should have re-raised more pre-flop? And I think the flop bet folds hands that I beat and only gets called by hands that beat me... I'm lost.

I don't think this is terrible...what are you gonna do - check the flop? Or bet $30? You're pot-committed - you reraised nearly 4x the initial preflop raise and still ended up with 2 callers - indicative of other pairs or a big Ace. I would only be worried about TT here and you're pretty much stuck paying it off. NH.
Oh - and your flop bet won't only be called by hands that beat you. Certainly KK calls, probably QQ. And if you do fold out everyone else, the pot is nice anyway.

Ok, I changed the subject line. I've been having my aces cracked so much recently that it's screwed up my thinking. MP2 insta-called my push and turned over 22. Oh well. I guess he made a bad call pre-flop.
