You can quit complaining because it won't be the last time that happens.

Nothing. I'm going broke on this hand every time.I like the bigger then usual raise before the flop to narrow the fieldI like the all in on the flop when you hit top setUnfortunately, people love taking huge risks on even a longshot draw early in the tournament, because of the early stageAA is the only hand worth going broke on in that stage of the tournamentNacal had Top pair, 2nd best kicker and isn't that unreasonable to call you with that, the other guy had no business being in that hand at that point.It hurts, I know, but go find something to punch for a while

punch the clown!!!!!i hate fish

[DigiDem]

I agree with the sentiment thus far. There really isn't a lot of wiggle room in this hand. You plays your cards you takes your chances. End of story. Most of the time you will win wih this hand, some of the time you wont. At least it was over quickly for you.DD (http://pokertimes.blogspot.com)

Fold pre-flop.(sw)

[creepy20]

Geez swift-psycho...you know better than thatYou should of folded that after the flop...you had to know that he was going to draw out on you...why risk everything with JUST TOP SET (SW)

I love fish. They give me their money.And to answer the question, you played it fine, it happens, don't worry, keep playing like that against those players and you'll win, get back on the horse, every cloud has a silver lining, etcetera.

It's amazing no one has actually pointed out what he did do wrong here. He really didn't play this hand well at all.The PF 8x raise is pretty obscene. You are lucky you got any action at all. If you want to get value with AA in the future, don't raise 100000000000000x the blinds. It's just bad.

[Vade]

Disagree strongly AbsoluteWhen there are limpers in the pot, I think you MUST raise AA and KK stronger then usual in order to avoid a multiway pot

There were a few limpers in beforehand, so I don't think the raise is bad. Though I still like folding pre-flop.

I could see justification for a pot sized raise here.That's it though.

[KDawgCometh]

I can also see justification to use the hand converter and not posting results(man I'm in a salty mood today :think: )

3 people limped in for 15 chips, plus the SB and BB have their blinds in so theres 70 chips in the pot already, a pot sized bet would be 110 chips since we have to add our 15 into the original 70 making it 85 in the pot. Our 85 chip raise with our 15 chip call makes a pot sized bet 100 chips. The OP made a very good preflop raise and played it perfectly.

[DiverDown4]

Raise 3 times the BB, 45 + whats alread in the pot (70), 115. thats a good raise.
