I tell you i have lost with AA more times than i have won. only on online poker this s**t happens.last 12 times with AA on poker room i won 4 times. And people will tell you that you play the AA wrong bssssssss. the only way to play AA in online poker is all in because if you check the hand you have all the fish's that play the 25 9 10 e.t.c and will fk you over either with 2 pair or straight.in real life life you will allways check a AA as stats of winning are 80% as to online 18%

Posted by Administrator: you're out?
I was out in 830th place
I played my AA like they should have been played, I had 38 000, blinds were 3000, I put in 4x the blind and the small blind/big stack called with J 10 suited and got his flush draw on the flop and we all know what happened after that, my all in got called and he hit his flush on the turn... drawing dead after the turn... I was pissed last night, now I just know that it is poker, luck is a big factor, if the flush didnt popped out and I would double up I think I would have come very far in the tournament but I guess we'll never know where I would end up

If you are not of legal age when the tournament you won the buyin to comes about you can put it off until the next year. I played alot of WSOP qualifiers on pokerstars a few years ago when I was 19 and that's how it worked then.
