Well its starting to seem like it never fails... *FT special*
I entered a $3 rebuy tourny this morning, in which i wasnt doing to bad... It was a rebuy though which proves to be a bit more of a grind being people can hang around through level 6. Well after the break there was no more rebuys allowed, i was on the big blind with just under 10k in chips... 2 people had called the big blind and it came to with 
i raise 3 times the blind and both of em call... flop comes 

with a pot of around 1000 chips i bet into it 600... quickly called by the person to my left, and the small blind folds. turn comes blank
, and dude pushes all in and he has me covered... i pretty much put him on a set maybe 10s maybe 4s, but im not gonna be able to get away from this... after calling time and weighing my options i make the call, which turns out to be a brilliant call (on a 20k chip pot), turns into the ultimate dissaster all in one... I make the call, he turns over 
absolutely no made hand what so ever, and of course river heart to send me to the rail!!
Full tilt special!! i felt like puking at first but im fine now... just had to vent a bit
I got to thinkin if i pushed all in preflop i may have won the hand right there and atleast won the blinds and a few bets... so probably played poorly on my part, but thats poker take the good with the bad i guess...
Definetly a swell kick in the nutz though thats for sure!! lol

he did have a hand. pr of 9s & alot of outs "IF" he was behind...no reason to believe you had anything .
plus YOU put him on a set....that means your behind.
you played it well...he got lucky
p.s. he probably would of called you preflop...its FTP and soooted.
Thanks guys, any support is better than no support... haha... Good to see a few others have the same conspiracy theories as i do...
Take Care Birds, and Good Luck the rest of the weekend...
well, personally I don't like pocket aces at all...I calls them sucker cards! I have been burned 9/10 times with pocket aces...I love them pocket jacks though...hope your nutz get better soon!!!
Better luck next time! Good luck on the felts!
ut as Kristy Gazes says "hindsight is 50/50"
just had mine cracked by 9 8. it happens
It's not fun to have rockets shot down. Mostly because we all tend to rely on them too much. It's just a pair, and may not hold up once the other cards come.
I think you played this hand well enough. You were trying to milk a few more chips out of it and it backfired is all. A bigger raise preflop, or a massive one on the flop might have done the trick, but who knows. As they say, with AA, you tend to win either a small pot or lose a big one.
I'd bet that most of us reading have had even more painful beats today, bigger hands than a pair getting bested. And I bet most of us have sucked out on the river a coupla times. The hand is not over until the river card lands.
Sympathies though. AA always does look so pretty preflop. And, if things go right, and it's heads up on the flop, they do often hold up. Just not every time.
