Re: I played this hand so bad
Soooo, you had aces that hand...
I remember seeing that right after I busted in 9th, and wondering what you had.
Holdem_NL claimed he had xx (EDIT: I shouldn't say what he said he had) in the chatbox... I don't know if he was lying or not. I'd say his calling range isn't as wide as you might think clay, because his opening range is probably higher than one might think. If I recall correctly this was 7 handed (8 maybe?) and I think he could be opening, even utg with some speculative hands, decent suited aces, good suited connectors, and small pairs, so I don't mind taking a flop and hoping he hits it somewhat (although not with the small pairs obviously).
I think it's unfortunate that he didn't hit the flop, and very often this play will work. I probably would have not thought about it enough, and pushed, but I definitely don't mind a cold call-- unless you have played so much with him that he would immidiatly recognize this as a trap, and check/fold 66 on 238, or something like that.
