Default Aces

Hello,

Does it really pay off to go all-in with a pair of bullets?

It all depends on the situation. Calling an all-in pf with aces is an obviously great move EVERY SINGLE TIME. Raising/re-raising allin pf isn't so much if you do not get any callers. You WANT to people to play with you when you have aces...however they must pay a reasonable amount...you do not want to play more than a threeway pot with aces, and you want a big pot on the flop to give you less folding equity. Slowplaying aces is dumb. DO NOT DO IT.

I always bet a lot when i have bullets, but don't bet too much. i usually make an opening bet of 3x bb when i have bullets

A 3xBB is the minimum needed to avoid bad beats but if you have 2 or 3 very aggressive players to you left, a limp in might be enough

Yep, never slowplay AA, especially preflop..
with 3 people playing slowplay can work out well postflop some times

Default take them to the limit

I always bet very strong with AA, and it seems that they will hold up over 70% of the time. great odds. but when they crash, god does it hurt.

Don't go all-in. Instead, raise high to get rid of those with low cards
