    Now, I do admit, I shouldnt have even been in this hand if it was played correctly but I wouldnt complain about the outcome.

    Lol look at the donkeys minraising and smooth calling preflop. You gave them what the deserved. NH sir.

    Nice hand sir.. gotta love when AA is misplayed by two different players on the same hand. Gotta love getting two calls by players both drawing dead to the turn/river.

    Could have been way different if you would have raised preflop too. Would you have folded if you raised pre-flop and they both went crazy with reraises? I think for me standard play when first to act with 99 is a raise and I would have walked into that one.

    Yeah, what a horrible play it is keep 99 in the hand when you hold AA.

    AA has >65% equity vs. 99+any hand OTHER than AA. Even vs. the OTHER AA (least likely hand in the deck!) he has a split 72% of the time.

    limp-cold calling a min raise is not typically my play of choice with AA... but I don't have a problem with either of them pushing/calling a/i on that flop.

    The blinds are hardly worth stealing here. They just got trebly unlucky.
    1) the both had AA
    2) they both slow played
    3) luckbox hero (isn't that a song by Foriegner?) hit his set.
