... This is a really strangely played hand. Ok, you decided to slowplay it preflop. Then I'd understand if you were going for a check raise on the flop against the preflop raiser, but you had position on him and he checked. Why on earth did you not bet the flop? If I played it like you did, I'd still call, but you made it much tougher on yourself. You raised small preflop and then just called a raise, then never put a dime in post flop. Not putting up much of a fight with AA.
