Poker Aces – how-to play them

by Mayra on Dec.26, 2012, under Poker

Poker Aces references two aces being dealt before theflop. It is the strongest possible before theflop hand inhold’em Poker. But despite this a large number of players find themselves on the losing end when dealt this hand.

When you are given a pair of Aces, you just do not drop out before theflop. You’re sitting with the best possible hand at this part of the round. So how do you gamble with Poker Aces ? Do you basically go all-in? I’d say definitely no to that.

Remember, you’re looking to earn as much profit out of this strong position. You need to maximise the possibility. Going all-in will merely drive most gamblers into folding before putting a wager.

If you’re in the initial spot (1st or 2nd to place a wager), you will make a single bet. Anyone with good cards will call, with hope somebody will raise. If there has been a raise don’t jump 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 any player that could get a straight or a flush. So I would start to raise boldly, if you’re fortunate you will fool 1 player into thinking that you are bluffing.

If you’re in the middle or later position (one of the last to cast a bet) you’ll observe as everybody calls and then raise. Even though you’re sitting with a pair of aces, if you can try to avoid a show-down. Guard your hand by forcing others to fold following the flop. If you don’t get rid of your adversaries you chance squandering your hand.
