    This is good news that he calls with 44. Very good news. Embrace this good news.

    Good news.

    Disagree that you should fold AA 110%  Its a monster hand so never fold pre in a cash game.   If you are worried about him flopping a set, just flat call and get it in on a flop with no 4’s on it.  Turned 4 is difficult but by then you are losing to many hands such as JT so you could get away from it. 

    To summarise don't fold AA  just learn to play it better.

    I don't think he needs to ''learn to play AA better'' judging from this example, as he got someone to pay him off pre with 44. But he needs to understand that aces sometimes get cracked. It's called poker.

    A A does get cracked, the point I was making is a raise a re raise and then a all in and he still calls with 4 4, just gets frustrating when you have had more bad beats than hot dinners.
