Default Hardly Ever..

I hardly ever limp with AA because of two things. A) The weak ass people I play with sometimes never raise. B) It gets really hard to put someone on any kind of hand. 26o could have caught his two pair.

I think it is the same mentality I have with sets. If you can get away from the hand when it turns bad, then why not slow play it or limp? If I hit a set on a board, even a scary one, I usually let the other guy bet out and see how much I can take.. If the flush or obvious straight comes I need to be able to fold or else it is stupid to slow play it.

I notice I do this alot too. I have AA. I raise pre-flop, and the flop is all undercards. I then get the urge to go all in or bet alot or call an all in bet. Alot of the time you end up getting beat by a lucky set of 3's or some crap like that. Laying down AA or any TPTK is hard. But I think the better players (better than me at least) can do it in a hurry. When I am REALLY on my game I can let go of these hands with out any problem, when I am giving it away I cling onto these way too far.
