$16, AA vs c/r on KKx flop

[fjuanl]

I sharkscoped villian after the c/r (has a 10% ROI thru 1000 games). Is this standard? Flop bet too small?

I would definitely bet the flop a bit harder, 150-160 seems good.

As played, I often shove over on the flop since this kind of check-minraise is sometimes a bluff to try to pick off your c-bet. As you played the flop, I agree with the turn fold - if he was bluffing the flop and the turn didn't help hm he would be unlikely to fire a second barrel.

The other thing is that if you are worried about AK, there are only 8 (rather than 16) ways that Villain could have AKo/AKs since you have two aces.

He so has a FD here, so I push over flop but fold turn as played.

Let him fire again.

I agree. What do you do if after calling the flop villain checks the Th?

I think that one benefit of taking OP's line is that it is unlikely that a 10% ROI player over a large sample size would fire again on the turn without having something that beats us.

Probably so, but at least we're giving him the chance to do it. If he doesn't we're back on the flop so to speak.
