some horrible lag opens for the pot i call with a546 ds or something like that. some guy calls behind us.the flop comes a46.the preflop raiser checks i blast the pot the other guy folds and the pre flop raisier check raises me for like 3/4 of the pot. he has aces here every time right?

well, with the greatly detailed post you've provided, no, I don't give him credit for aces every time here. You have the blocker, and if he has AAxx and flops an ace, he should be leading out.When did you start playing high-only??

trying to learn new games. if i don't believe him should i call or raise? i guess if i raise and he comes back over the top i could fold, but then there really aint that much left so i might as well call. so i answered my own question, call unless i know he will shove it in with less than a set here (if i think he might not have aces).in the hand i called and he blasted the pot on the turn. i picked up a flush draw but still folded figuring that if he is really this anxious to give away his money (ie he doesnt have aces) ill get it soon enough.

w/ the upping of aggression I've gotten more one street w/ my play, but flatting this flop seems iffy. There's a lot of turns that would make me fold, if you're looking for a reason to fold he's given you enough of one, but my choices here would be raise or fold w/ call pulling up show.

Stack sizes and pot sizes are very important in this hand.

You don't often see someone raise preflop and then check-raise an A-high flop. A check-call means he is likely to have aces, but a check-raise is a pretty rare play in this spot at least in my experience. The lesson of this hand is that you should consider using the check-raise in this spot yourself.

When you check-raise do you always have aces?

no. i actually do it a lot. it turns lots of little pots that you would have won with a c-bet into like 20bbish pots.
