Ok, I need a little more info Just what exactly do you mean, and just how big is this hammer you speak of?

Lets say I'm in middle position and am holding AQo in a .25/.50 nl ring. I raise it up to 2.oo, and get 2 callers. AQJ flops, 2 of which are suited. There is 6 or so dollars in the pot, does putting down the hammer mean betting 12, 18, 24?

Thank you all in advance for any advice you may give.

Oh, btw, I think it is more correctly Chnevrolet, not Cnhevrolet
