At first i thought you lost the hand either by going all in preflop, or afterwards. Wasnt expecting that But i have to admit that it has happened to me a couple of times. It is like waiting for so long getting a good hand and when that happens every one else has the worst combos.

That happend to me belive it or not 90% of the time when I am on BB, I just cant belive it... Always when I see that I got aces on BB I told myself " Here we go again, evrybody gonna fold" just hate it when this happend expecialy as you said I'v waiting those aces so long...
No luck Yeah of course ... But on the other hand maybe if other players would have a good hand, and you could lose ... And a lot of play in connection with the certainty that you have a winning hand. I am often faced with the fact that if there are two aces outperform their weaker cards. A fold you already can not due to the fact that you are confident of victory.
I lost and with two aces and two kings and two queens and two jacks. And often lost man who was originally a bad card.

Doesn't that just miff you something rotten? The same thing happened to me tonight in. Zoom game, where it would have really helped for everyone else to call or shove, which seemed to have been the play of the night....until of course it comes to my turn with AA in the BB. It happens.

Yup, but what seems odd, there was 2 players, one was on button that raise almoust evry single hand... That player on button evry single button he raised, and I took some $ from him, and I was impressed he folded, I tought for sure those 2 would raise... I am running deep right now on 100k$ privilage freeroll, there is 1k players left from 21k and I am 100 wish me luck

balancing yur play mobsters.cash game and tournament has different style of playin.if you hold pocket aces on cash game u wont easily go for all in surely they will fold u.but on triple the bet might u call you at least 2 players and dont be so sure to win u have to be connected on the board or u might lose it all.while on tournament pushing all in aa everybody can call you hope for luck
