Aces beat by 72

Not sure what messages are “mixed” in my analysis. With aces, you’re ahead preflop. However, when your opponent raises you twice on the flop, they’re indicating a lot of strength - more than a single pair. On an unconnected flop, there aren’t many draws to use as bluffs.

Also, when you do raise, you need to choose a size that makes sense. You want to get some weak hands to fold, and build a nice pot when you have a strong hand. Min-raising rarely accomplishes the first, and doesn’t accomplish the second.

We can’t be talking about the same hand. My mistake.
