I have lost with pocket As the last 5 times I've had them at least. This time it was in a pretty loose home game. Its early on and I'm playing the first hand I've played thus far.
I'm UTG and raise 3x bb.
I'm called by MP who is very loose
Then I'm also called by LP.
Flop comes A 10 3 rainbow
I raise 25% of the pot (probably should've raised alot more 3 handed) Got called by both.
Turn is 7
Now I'm starting to think about a strange straight possibility that no one should be sticking around with.
I raise significantly-more than the pot. I go all-in. Giving the other players no where near the odds they need to chase a draw. ---They both call
River is an 8...the MP player had J 9 off. His straight 7-J beats my set of As. The other dude had the other A.
I couldn't believe he called my pre-flop raise with junk then called another raise (albeit to small) with a 3 straight. Then calls a huge raise on the turn with only like an 8 or 9 percent draw!!
I'm still upset. Even if I would've raise more post flop he would've called and gotten all his money in later anyway. Just needed to vent some.
