Poker Aces – how-to wager them

[ English | Deutsch | Español | Français | Italiano ]

Poker Aces refers to two aces being dealt before theflop. It’s the best possible pre-flop hand inhold’em Poker. But despite this a great many bettors find themselves on the losing end when given these cards.

When you’re dealt a set of Aces, you just don’t fold before theflop. You are positioned with the best achievable hand at this stage of the game. So how do you bet with Poker Aces ? Do you actually go all-in? I’d say absolutely no to that.

Always remember, you are attempting to acquire as much profit out of this strong position. You need to maximise the possibility. Going all-in will merely drive most players into folding before making a wager.

If you are in the initial position (1st or 2nd to cast a bet), you’ll place a single bet. Any person with a good hand will call, with hope somebody will raise. If someone has made a raise don’t spring 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 strategy will be to eliminate any player that might get a straight or a flush. So I would begin to raise aggressively, if you’re lucky you’ll fool 1 player into thinking that you are bluffing.

If you are in the middle or late spot (near the last to cast your bet) you’ll watch as everyone calls and then raise. Even with you sitting with a pair of aces, if possible try to avert a show-down. Protect your hand by making the other players fold following the flop. If you don’t drive out your adversaries you chance losing your hand.
