Gooner21 0 Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 15 person tournament and we are down to 8. UTG moves all in for $2300 and I have AA. I move all in over the top for $3200. Then a guy in late position moves in for $2700. Both blinds fold. UTG has Ad Qh and other guy has Jd Ts. Well after 4 running diamonds come I have $500 chips left. I lose the main pot and the side pot and go out a few hands later when my AQ is outdrawn by K9. We were paying 4 spots so my question is is there any chance you ever fold there? All the guys said that's a bad beat and so on. Well no kidding sherlock. Just wanted some advice. I'm sure in my gut it's the right play but now I'm second guessing myself since I lost. I know bad beats happen and I've had them happen on the good side for me too but this one really beat me down. Link to post Share on other sites
BetItAll33 0 Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 AA - 74.1%AQ - 10.2%TJ - 15.6%Nah, I think you should wait and find a better spot to get your chips in. Link to post Share on other sites
Gooner21 0 Posted March 21, 2005 Author Share Posted March 21, 2005 I know what you mean. Sometimes I question myself just because I think I can get into the money everytime I play with the group I play with. I tend to get sucked out on a lot when I go in before the flop. I didn't realize the odds were quite that good though. Now I feel worse. lol Link to post Share on other sites

Isn't that obvious???Note--for those that don't know, that's me being sarcastic. I've been accused today of giving results-oriented advice. Too funny.Seriously, if there was ever a black-and-white "correct" play here, you made it. Link to post Share on other sites
jayistheman 0 Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 why would you doubt yourself here? you had AA and were forced all in... it sucks to lose the supersatellite example (you can search for it) is the only time u ever fold aces. Link to post Share on other sites
