Default AK got run over

I have found myself paying off better hands on hands like this way to often in my poker career.
I played a very similar hand 2-3 days ago when I had the same hand (AK), and the flop came the same AT8r, and i got stacked by T8...
I don't know if this "new" line was much better but...

End of game 619152167

At the time i was fairly confident i was beat (cuz the only hand i am really beating is AQ?).
But then i checked PT just before posting this, and it shows villain was 81/14 over 40 hands..!
Does this change anything?

thanks

Default Re: AK got run over

I keep a small notepad.exe document with some simple things to remind myself of when playing. I added the following to that list yesterday:

Do NOT call large raises with only one pair.

Remember, with stats like that, you'll find a much better situation to stack this donkey. Open up your starting hands a tad, and wait for the payoff when HE is the one calling with one pair.

Don't call the flop raise and fold to the inevitable turn bet.

Make a decision on the flop to either fold (probably the right decision in most cases), call down or raise.
