no, reraiser the flop, make him pay to see the turn. Your raise didn't give you any information, so you have to raise again.

Nice preflop raise with aa, no miniraise this time, well done;)


flop call is fine. But on the turn, i would raise this minbet to 5$

I never min-raise pre-flop with AA:)


on the flop , what hand would you put him on

if he had 5s or 6s , most players would not call small pairs without there being something like 5 players calling

so would have to put him on a Q with not that good of kicker so would pushed after his reraise on flop

On what limit people don�t limp/call with small pocket pairs even against one raiser:)

Possible hand range: 55,66, Qx, 78. Probably I m ahead or way behind. Don�t want to make another 5$ re-raise to find it out. By calling I could re-evaluate on the turn and if he still continues his aggressive play, I should fold.

thing with small pocket pairs ,
calling a raise you are at best 50/50 and seeing a flop any over cards you dont know where you are
with pocket pairs you are looking to hit a set on flop & need about 5 players in it to get you odds but understand at low limits players will call with small/medium pairs

the coaches would be better to advise you on odds or used PokerStove as for the reraise of $5 , you would end up pot committed so personal I would push anyway and if he has a set that's poker or if he has straight draw he is not really getting odds to call

Big stack gets the odds limp/calling for set value.

I�m not pot committed and I don�t have to push against min-raise. I�m in position and can decide on the turn if I want to get pot committed or not. But here you are right, I should re-raise turn and call his push. If he would bet 4$ then I�ld probably fold. But it all depends and when you�re using pokertracker and PAHUD then you can decide if you want to get stacked. Against passive player I don�t have any problem laying my aces down against pot size turn bet.
