AA sucks today

[nflchad]

You could, ya know raise preflop. Just a thought...

[JDMcNugent7]

Ya, I mean i def. would if they didnt raise in front of me, but both times there was a pretty good sized PF raise in front of me - and anyway i think in both situations I got the result i was looking for really - ya i lost both hands - but for the most part i think i played them right.

In the KK hand he hit a 2 outer- And then i couldn't hit my flush Re-draw either - and the river call on the end i was pretty sure i was behind , but i still think u usually have to call there.

And the 10J vs. AA hand - i got him to do Exactly what i wanted - and with a PF Re-raise i think it would have def. given away higher PP and theres no way he pushes all in there - which is what i want - even tho i lost the hand

Yup. I'm happy to win a small pot rather than lose a big pot any day.

I know a lot of people disagree with this, and that's fine.

Wow, that blows. Whats that, like 1300 dollars lost in one day?

[JDMcNugent7]

Ya, after checking poker tracker after about 1,000 hands my hand losing the most $$$ is AA.
And ya - thats about 1.3k that i was an 80/20 fav. and lost um all - somehow i still ended being Up overall on the day tho

I hate when losing with Aces rasing pre flop usually takes out bad hand but there are people with 10 J , 10 Q, hand like that they think they are good. Then they hit top pair and go all in you call they turn or river 2 pair this makes me mad.

[Reel Deal]

OK, I don't feel quite as bad now about losing $200 yesterday. LOL. Sorry JD, tough day.
