Pocket Pair of Aces – How to Use Them

A lot of people got a pocket pair of aces, which is an incredible hand if you know how to use it, but end up getting less chips or even nothing at all. I have even seen people with pocket pair of aces to start with ended up losing the round or folding too early. Pocket aces are a good hand to start with, but it is also a tricky hand. You hand is good, but there are other possible better hands as well. In most cases, pocket aces can guarantee you a win hands down; all you have to do is play the card correctly, conceal your tells, and have other players play by your pace. The worst thing a player can do with pocket aces is going all-in pre-flop. Believe me, I have seen this move being performed countless time only to get beaten on the river or winning only a small amount of money because other players jump out of the boat immediately. Pocket aces are to be played smoothly. If you can, limp through pre-flop. Add some hesitation to your table tells to make people think you don’t have a good hand. They will buy this most of the time and try to get you out of the game by bluffing you with significant raise. Just take your time, and call their bet. If the flop shows another ace, don’t jump out of your chair. Make sure you calculate possible hands of your opponent. If there are no aces dealt at the flop, proceed with caution while slowly luring your opponents to putting bigger money on the pot. Carefully analyze the best possible hand that can be constructed with the flop, and continue to do so when seeing the turn and the river. If everything went well, you will be pocketing a nice sum of chips easily.
