Poker Aces – the right way to gamble them
by Gaige on February 21st, 2010
Poker Aces refers to two aces dealt before theflop. It’s the strongest possible pre-flop hand inhold’em Poker. But regardless a great many competitors find themselves on the wrong end when dealt these cards.
When you are given a set of Aces, you just do not drop out before theflop. You are sitting with the best achievable hand at this stage of the game. So how do you wager with Poker Aces ? Do you actually go all-in? I’d say no to that.
Bear in mind, you are looking to acquire as much profit out of this strong position. You want to maximise the possibility. Going all-in will merely drive most players into folding without making a wager.
If you are in the starting seat (first or 2nd to wager), you’ll lay a single wager. Anybody with a decent hand will call, with hope a person will raise. If there has been a raise do not hop to re-raise or call, pause for a small bit – make them think you’re considering your options and then call.
Following the flop your tactic will be to get rid of anyone that might be able to build a straight or a flush. So I would begin to raise boldly, if you’re lucky you’ll trick one player into believing that you are tricking.
If you’re in the center or later position (near the last to cast a bet) you’ll observe as every player calls and then raise. Even with you sitting with a pair of aces, if you can try to abstain from a show-down. Guard your hand by forcing others to drop out after the flop. If you don’t force out your opponents you chance losing your hand.
