Lost my stack with AA - comments?
Hi,
I think I played this hand reasonably well, but since I only recently stepped up from a lower buy-in table, I'd like others' comments. Thanks! 2-4 No limit, $300 buy-in at Foxwoods. I've been playing for about 40 minutes, have about $305. In LP, I'm dealt A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Player two to my right (who has made a number of PF raises to 2 or 25 in the time I've been there) bumps it to 25. I reraise to 60. All fold, original raiser calls. Flop: 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]10 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] He checks, I bet $100, he check raises to put me all in for another $145. I decide my pot odds exceed the probability that he has a set and call. He flips over: A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] The turn comes: 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and the river: 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and I lose to the gutshot flush. Any comments on how I played the hand?

I wish I could have stayed. I had the cash with me for another buy-in, but I felt a little too on tilt to stick it out. I guess I need to work on that.

Re: Lost my stack with AA - comments?
You played the hand real well(but u already know that), you just gotta work on not goin on tilt.
I think I read in one of Sklansky's books(i'm not sure which), it goes something like :- If i get drawn out on when im a favorite like (80-20), the way i look at it is outta hundred times im gonna lose 20, and I've just lost one, so im gonna lose 19 outta the next 99. Its a very simplistic way of thinking and it most definitely stops me from goin on tilt ever.

Hand plays itself.
It could just easily have been you who backdoored a 4-flush.
