Pocket aces are all in or all out, depending on position and other players respect levels...with you Kev, I would all in and offer you a cookie to sit out...

[symbolon]

Depending on the game and the timing etc,example a tourney such as hets maybe I would play them and with a hand like yours Kev ...........I'll take the cookie as recompence!

If its one of the madness tourneys or a tilt then I'm All in.

However, I really don't have a set stance on this and its very much how I read the table at the time...........

But I do like Cookies!!!!!

I fold them lol. No just kidding I raise them 5 times pot size preflop and cross my fingers and pray.

i deffo agree with the raise... however my raise depends on the table ur playing... i dont realy want to play AA against more than 1 other hand, 2 at the most or your asking for trouble and be out drawn..

so the raise can go from 3X BB to all in depending on position etc:

however u must play other hands the same way otherwise your to easy to read, u need that uncertainty in your play so its hard to put u on a percific hand

on a very rare occasion i would slow play AA... only tho if i was pretty certain there would be a raise behind me, many players will over play hands like AJ o/s and if u re-raise them they cant put them down ... and there all in in behind you, then u just grin and call
