Re: My Aces are running baaaaad! Is it my fault?
I don't see how you slow down. After the turn is capped and Villain bets the river, I have a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach that Villain turned his set of 8's (or the more unlikely flush); but am I giving up on my AA on this board? No. It's not your fault if others hit their hands. You raised pf forcing them to call 2. You bet the flop and 3-bet the turn. The fact that you check/called the river shows some restraint. What would you do differently? If Villain has a set of Ks, 6s, or 9s, OK -- what can you do?
Nice hand.
