just about as passive as passive gets :/

 

[Bombjack]

I suppose we have to give him credit for calling pre-flop rather than folding...

 

[shortstacked]

he was tryingto trap and ended up traping his own self, i've see it alot of times

This is why people with low IQs should not be allowed to watch poker on TV.

 

[shinedown.45]

beginners, that's all I can say

 

[brutus]

only thing i can figure is they've been burned by pocket aces so many times they made a commitment to not bet on them ever ever ever again.:hmmmm: ....just tryin to give em benefit of the doubt

So, the benefit of newbies like me and others on the site could all of you that respond so far would please comment on - How would you have played it? if you were slicknik78?

 

[brutus]

im all in preflop

You should normally raise pre-flop with Aces. In an early position it's OK to limp if you're fairly sure someone will raise behind you, so you can re-raise. Generally bet them aggressively so that people can't draw out to a hand stronger than a pair, as happened here.
