kmak
OK so I am new to this poker game, bouncing around up a few hundred down a few hundred playing low stake NLH ring games. Trying a few MTT for low buy-ins, seem to be able to get to the top 20% but always make a stupid mistake late to miss cashing.

So I am playing a 20+2 MTT at Poker Room, 156 players, top ten cash, I am in 9th out of 16 remaining players. Big stack two to my right, I am dealt AA. Should I have folded, or is it just a bad beat? Just trying to learn....

Lock it up, please. OP posted same 1/2 hour earlier at

You only need to post it once. AA against four opponenets in only a 55% favorite. It's tough to say that two people behind you will call also. In your position, I may have called also.
