Poker Aces references two aces being dealt before theflop. It’s the strongest attainable pre-flop hand inholdem Poker. But regardless a great many bettors end up on the losing end when dealt this hand.
When you’re dealt a pair of Aces, you just don’t drop out before theflop. You’re sitting with the best achievable hand at this part of the game. So how do you wager with Poker Aces ? Do you actually go all-in? I would say definitely no to that.
Always remember, you’re looking to earn as much money out of this strong position. You need to maximise the opportunity. Going all-in will merely scare most players into dropping out and not making a bet.
If you’re in the early spot (first or 2nd to wager), you will make a single bet. Any player with good cards will call, hopefully a player will raise. If there has been a raise don’t hop to re-raise or call, pause for a short while – make them think you’re considering your options and then call.
After the flop your plan will be to get rid of anyone that could be able to build a straight or a flush. So I would begin to raise aggressively, if you’re fortunate you will trick 1 player into thinking that you’re faking it.
If you’re in the center or late position (one of the last to cast your bet) you’ll watch as everyone calls and then raise. Even with you holding a pair of aces, if you can try to abstain from a show-down. Defend your hand by making the other players drop out after the flop. If you don’t force out your competition you risk losing your hand.
