Right and Wrong to play pocket A's in this situation...

[TheShadz]

saying that he had AJ AQ or AK just because he raised, isn't a "read" its guessing.

I "guess" I'm really bad at guessing

[bennymacca]

the reason i am saying that is the same as what garth said.

pretty much every pocket pair TT+ at the absolute minimum is also raising there. and unless you have a very specific read that he NEVER raises pocket pairs from utg, then you cannot discount these from his range

[TheShadz]

Thanks for the input guys...

on the other this happened to me today in the Deepstack
reason why I get so frustrated playing poker sometimes.

On the other hand pockets aces played very well...

bad luck in that last hand shadz.

look at this scenario. if had a bet with you for $10, on a certain random number from 0-9, and if it was a 0 i won, and if it was 1-9 you won, (assuming the generator is fair) would you take that bet?

similar situation here. you played it fine 90% favourite, you got unlucky.
