I wanted to post this hand where I play Aces hard preflop and get maximum value.
I raised my Aces under the gun, and then I get a cold caller and a button raiser. The button raiser does this habitually, and he's a regular at these tables. I believe that if I put in a normal 4-bet, both of my opponents could fold because my holding would be obvious. And I didn't want to just call his raise because I wanted to trap the middle position player's money in the pot.
So I pushed all in.
This move is usually reserved for AK hands in exactly this type of situation. By overbetting my Aces, I believe I'll get calls from lesser hands who would likely misread me, thinking I held a hand like AK.
In this situation, pushing preflop may have been the only way for me to win a piece of this pot because I was out of position with a scary flop. I may have been forced to fold on the flop if I had played the hand slower.
