    You make your post flop decisions with AA much easier by RAISING PRE FLOP. When you limp in and then stack off on any flop, you give everyone at the table insane implied odds to play against you. As a beginner, you should be looking to raise any pre flop bet before you when you hold AA, it's the easiest way to play AA and it's usually the most profitable. Just fucking raise, don't get cute with AA because it often ends in tears.

    My 2 cents.... 1st off you need to be raising AA pre flop.. I know everyone has said this,but lets think about why. Well generally our goal is to get value from our hands. Well the only way to get value is to bet. 2nd when you raise for value.. your not just getting the value pre flop you are getting information. Based on the amount you raise and if they call,raise, or fold. This info will help you narrow your opp. range. 3rd when you raise for value you will also make anyone with a drawing hand pay "bad" pot odds to see the flop. Limping lets anyone play any two cards and will lead to you not knowing what the fuck is going on and losing your stack. Also on this flop I would have prob either called or reraised..but not all in. You got to remember AA is still only one pair. So remember raise for value and with it comes info and protection. Also I am new to poker too... so if anyone thinks my logic flawed here please let me know.
