    Default 2 AA hands for Review

    Villain is 94/19/30 over 36 hands.

    Logic

    Preflop:standard
    Flop:With his bet and his stats he can really have any two cards from made hands to strong draws to anything. Against that I am ahead so I raise. I have seen this type of behavior from other manics where they bet small to keep people in the hand but even after his raise I do not know where I am at. I call deciding to fold on turn if he makes a bet.

    Turn This smells trap or weirdly played flush/straight draw. I call planning to give up on river.

    River: He beats I fold. Against a possible range of 77,55,99, jj+,68,t8 and I am going to throw 72 for bluff hand. my equity is 33% or 2:1 to call he is giving me pot odds of 2.8, but his range is so wide and without reads i lay it down.

    The really question is even if I hit my A it doesn't really help me that much......

    Villain is 23/2/3 over 84 hands but I have a feeling he is a thinking player.
    Logic:

    Preflop: Standard
    Flop: I lead out because I never see myself checking here. I call his min raise
    Turn: I give up. His range on the Turn is:kqs,aq,kk,jj,55. Even if i do not include TTs there are so few hands that i beat here that it isn't worth stoving it. It really depends on is he capable of bluffing at me and am I capable of figuring it out correctly are large majority of the time and the answer is I can't so I give it up. Since if I call and don't improve on the river I will have a very tough decision to make with no more information.

    My beginners opinion

    1st hand

    Ive battled with many 94/19/ types and quite enjoy the fight.
    I agree with your fold, hes going to turn up with 68o .

    2nd hand

    Another good fold ,the shortie turns u with AQ I reckon.

    Excellent examples of letting AA go IMO.

    Plan your hand. For instance, what hands does CO raise on the flop in H2, that dont shove all turns? Can we really be calling and then c/fing with our equity against that?

    How do you imagine villains will play future streets, given their action on the current street? Thinking about this will help u alot.

    hand 1 id probably shove the turn, 94/whatever is too frickin bad to fold aces too lol, maybe im just stubborn though, as played the river fold is probably a wise decision although i just call it but im a fish, i hate folding to donks

    hand 2 like jkds says either fold to the flop raise or call the all in, its not much more on the turn, i dunno as played i probably just call but if you fold the flop id give you a good pat on the back

    i like that youre able to get off aa, will serve you well as you move up, analyzing where you are against opponents range rather than looking at your hand and saying ah shove! gj overall
