    But he saved over $10 playing it like that, you would have just called it down and sucked out anyway. Aces are rigged, can't make money with the stupid hand. It's win a small pot or lose a big one like that Doyle Greenstein guy said....

    He should have just folded preflop - playing big pairs out of position is where you 'lose big pots'
