Call, he has a weaker ace most of the time (eventually A8/A2). Then he can have 99-JJ and least likely a set.

Hi all,

120 pre and postflop is a bet/call.

Betting 200-250 on the flop is enough though.

Bad luck. The thing about poker though, whether we're playing fixed limit, shortstack strategy, bigstack strategy, multitable tournaments or sit-n-goes is that we're playing against hand ranges in the longrun. If someone is making this move with any ace, and any set on the flop, we are making a huge mistake if we fold to his all-in (and consequently a huge profit in the longrun if we call). Don't be too worried about the actual results in individual hands.

I realise there is some luck involved in the game I was just wondering if I had made a mathematical good call. It seems I did so I know dont have to worry about my play

Thanks for the evaluation.
