Here's a beauty I wanted to share. 5k guaranteed with rebuys on Bodog. I have 9k in chips villain has 12k. With blinds of 200 and 400 and 50 chip antes I get raised to 1040.00 total in the 400 big blind with A10. Its only 600 and change so I decide to defend. Flop comes 10A5. I just instantly shove the 2.5k pot with my last 8k half hoping he folds half hoping he calls, well he calls with AK and the turn is a K the river is a 3 and I'm out once again. I know its poker etc etc but its gets very old playing for good for so long and then losing to some donk who overplays his hand etc etc. (He's a donk bc he basically minraised the big blind with AK). These people tee their chips up but end up keeping them in the end. Good luck everyone.

The better hand won in the end. You're correct, that's not poker. You definetely should have won that hand.
