Advice please??

[mcarthur11]

I was playing in the Paradise Poker League last night, and unusually found myself chip leader with about 30 players left with about 3500 chips. I got dealt AA, with one or two players calling the big blind of 100 chips i decided to re-raise to 600. Everyone folded bar one, who flat called. The flop was 2 4 5 rainbow, he made a token bet and i decided to re-raise all in, which he called with A 3!! Was i right to play the way i did, or just unlucky. Very next hand i got dealt KK, managed to double up, but ended up sucking out in 23rd, which i totally blamed on my Aces, next time, automatic fold!!!!

Re: Advice please?? I think it depends on your notes about the player. If he was noted a tight player, then your move might be correct because the flop probably didn't hit your opponent and he has a pocket pair lower than you, it would be a perfect situation. If you noted him an aggressive player, or he is calling with any aces then you have to be careful of course. I don't know the chip counts but a re-raise could be better. Anyway you probably wouldn't be able to escape if you had no notes on him because you wouldn't expect it. unlucky...
