.50/.50 $25 max buy-in NLHE home game hand:
I have red AA in SB, it's folded to me, I raise to $2.50, BB flat calls. Flop was like this:
K /images/graemlins/spade.gif rag /images/graemlins/spade.gif rag /images/graemlins/club.gif
I bet $5, he flat calls. Turn is another (offsuit) rag. I bet another $5, he raises to $15), I push in (I think $10 more). He calls immediately and shows me KK. No help on the river, I lose a big pot.
I'm almost positive I played it wrong, and I'm pretty sure i could have avoided it somehow. I still have trouble playing AA, it's a big weakness in my game. What should I have done and where should I have done it to avoid one of these disasters?
Thanks in Advance,
