    Default 100NL AA vs ??

    This is my first post so please don't flame. I've been playing live, online NL Hold'em for about 2 1/2 years now. It all started in Iraq, when a bunch of my Marines buddies got bored. Anyways, just wanted to share this with all of you and was just trying to get some feedback on maybe how I should of played it different. I honestly cannot see me playing the flop nor the hand any other way against a 745 25/13 player. Here is the hand:

    you got the money in as a significant favourite and played it fine. This is a standard suckout rather than a possible line debate.
    "This sure beats Super Mario Bros.!" is my ejaculation catch phrase.

    Typical bad beat. A LARGE majority of the time, you're going to be celebrating at the end of hands like this.

    Agreed with above and want to add - Welcome to FTR.
    Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.
