Re: Another How Not to Play AA's

Why the check-raise? Because you take your money and go home with all the money you're going to get. After Dad bet on the turn, that was the most he was going to put into the pot unles he hit his straight. Nothing good can happen on the river to get you more money...you'll only lose. (OK, OK, maybe he hits his second pair on the river and pays you off, but that's a remote chance vs. him folding vs. all the other ways you can lose.)
