This sort of thing happens all the time.....what do you expect? AA isnt gonna win all the time now is it! If your playing low limits its gonna happen all the time.

in my opinion, unless it was all-in preflop - you played really badly... AA is not unbeatable... in fact - in this situation you can only beat one pair or a total bluff, so calling shove on the river (that's how I understood your description) is very poor play

It doesn't matter how you play this hand. Opponent never let down with these cards. If you go all-in pre-flop, he will call. If you go all-in after soft flop, he will call, either in the turn or river. You should accept that in this case you are dead and nothing else.

Not really a donk, although he may have overplayed JJ a lil bit (i dont know how the betting history went.) He could have had Q10 or QJ and gone all in preflop and won, then you could call him/her a donk
I know I have nothing to teach anyone but the problem it's always the same: go all in preflop or after flop to be have more chances to win or slowplay trying to maximize pot but taking risks ?
