Results 1 to 3 of 3

    Default Stars $3.40 with AA.

    This is the second hand of a Stars $3.40 SnG so no reads on anyone.

    Question 1: Was my re-raise big enough pre-flop?
    Question 2: What do I do now? Do I believe one of them has a Q? I hate folding Aces.

    I'm not afraid to get it AI here at a $3.40. Sure, sometimes they show you a Q but this is often something like KJ or TT.

    Preflop, I think your raise size is fine. When I used to play $5.50/6.50 games I would occasionally shove it here and very often get called.

    puke/call I guess? I think never fold AA on the flop at this level is OK. I wouldn't raise, if you're ahead KT is calling anyway and something else might somehow fold. If a J/T comes I might even fold the turn. I really feel gross reading this, hmmm, can we fold? meh, I guess not
