Aug 11-12
I have apparently become an expert at losing with AA over the past two days.
I sat down at a $1-$2 rush lo limit hold'em table on full tilt poker with $100.
The first hand I got dealt was AA in the BB. A guy in early position made a large then average raise of $10 with a guy in middle position calling, then the SB who was short stacked went all in for $38. I figured with $60 already in the pot I was happy to just play heads up for the pot so I went all in. The original raiser folded but the guy in middle position called, he had 8 8 and the SB flipped over KK. I am an 65% favorite to win the $250 pot and a 80% favorite to at least beat the 88 and walk away with the $124 side pot.
The flop had an 8, the turn another 8 and I lose $100 on the first hand of the day.
Over the course of the rest of the day and play this morning I have lost 4 more hands with AA. Two times all in preflop once having a smaller pair hit a set and the other time hitting a flush. The other two the money went all in during post flop play once with a guy calling me with a flush draw and hitting and the most recent hand the flop came 3 6 7 with two diamonds, I bet he called, then a 10d hit and I wanted to end it right there so I went all in and was called by a set of 3s to lose again. I lost about $500 on those four hands. But that was not enough losing for me. I figured I should be on the losing end a couple times with the other guy having AA with me a big pair. All in all I lost $800 and sit at an even $2000.
If you told me two weeks ago this is where I would be sitting I would have been very happy, but hard to be happy after a stretch like that.
