Default Re: Lost my stack with AA - comments?

my comment is that you should play tables where a loss like this isn't life or death.

Default Re: Lost my stack with AA - comments?

It wasn't at all "life or death". I don't have the skill to play at a level where the money would really matter.

I think I was mostly pissed just about the bad beat. I had a similar thing happen to me about 6 months ago at a $100 buy-in table. Got all my chips in preflop with AA against JJ. The other guy hit his set on the turn. I wasn't in the proper state to continue. Until I learn to just roll with these sorts of bad beats, I think it makes sense just to stand up and leave (recognizing that I won't be playing as well as I can).
