Don't you love when your aces get beat by something thats far behind? Or any hand where the person is hugely behind and just runner runner hits his flush.. Its so sick

If I created a thread every time my AA was cracked I'd be well on my way to a thousand threads by now. If you didn't lose with AA now and again it wouldn't be called gambling. I've cracked someone else's aces a fair few times too.
How did you play the first hand? At what point did you go all-in?

Classical situation. I hate these situations: /. Always a donkey must enter the game with some sh*t. Ok, KK vs. AA and K on the flop is dramatic: /, but the second game ... 85?! WTF?!

A8s is not aces. Sucks to lose with trips, but s**t happens. And AA vs KK is just a setup. You will win a lot with it, if opponents don't hit that king.

Posted by Funope: The best hands to beat AA are low cards
Yep or 9 2. With out doing the math the baest hands to beat AA would be mid range connectors, so from 56s to 89s (above 89 you can be out drawn) again at a guess youd be comming in at 20-25% underdog. If you can spot a AA sometimes its worth the action, most people will pay out. Happy AA hunting.

I honestly very rarely have my aces cracked..
Few months ago (before I started my 'BRM' program) I was drunk and TILT and I took $200 of my $300 roll to a nl600 table - I managed to spin it up to $600 - guy I was playing against was a reg and kept a full stack always.. Anyway - I get AA on the button make a decent raise (it's been an aggressive game) and he re-raises - after consideration of my options - I shove - he snap calls - I think OMG I've just span $200 into $1200 in about 20min - he flips KK - flop comes KKX - and I didn't manage runner runner quads lol.

Posted by racpxt: A8s UTG... Fold it pre-flop. And hitting that flop don't go that crazy unless you are 100% sure the player is a complete donk and folds nothing.
I knew he was a donk which was why i went for it and i was steaming lolol.

Posted by dozn01: is that your bankroll gone from full tilt now..............
Its a long story.. basically a while ago some1 gave me $1 on FTP and i built it into $200 using proper BRM blah blah .. Then i withdrew the $200 via bankwire and yesterday they sent me a msg saying we have problems with our 3rd party processors blah blah so they gave me $50 for my inconvienance on my account... So i didnt give a "poop" it was their money and i just had fun with it

depends very well at which poker site and if you are classified as a donk or player. difference: as player you will lose AA as often as donk, but always in more important situations...
Pokerstars and fulltiltPoker use following classifications in function for MaxProfit:
Heros - very few highstack players, instructores and other opinon makers to show the mass of people, it is possible
Players - regular players that would beat donks at micro- and low stacks, these are the emeny of every poker page as they would take away too much total BR capital from the page
Payers - donks, that are willig to pay in regular - the are loved by the poker pages

^ that sounds pretty vague to be 'officially' attributed to FTP AND PS ?? What's your source?
You were tilted and you went with your whole BR?
