AA vs QQ

Happened yesterday PM...

Cash Game, Blinds at 3/6, last hand of the evening 6 handed.

Note: Have bought in several times and now approaching 2 bills down for that night..., couldn't really get anything going the first 3 hours. Finally worked my stack back up to $175 (still down $25) the last hr or so.

I am the BB, action UTG+1 limps in, folded around to DB who makes it $25, SB folded, I look down to see AsAh. First reaction..., "F$%^!, here we go again!" I then announce re-raise and make it to $75!

NOTE: DB was the huge chip leader majority of the night but has been bleeding chips the last hour or so to the much lessor stacks.

Action folded around to DB who calls out my hand..., "Man..., this sucks, I know you have 'em so my hand is beaten 4 sure..., I really need a smoke after this hand..., always bad timing..., DB then goes all-in and I insta-calls - he has $95 total. Pot is just under 2 bills.

DB shows two red ladies.

Note: If I win this hand like any, it would've been the greatest comeback from being 2 bills down to going up $70 for the night. Not much but to come back in an hour or so is quite an achievement itself.

Flop 7-6-2 w/ TWO SPADES..., turn is a no good mother f---ing..., you freaking son of a b----, no good 90/10 bull crap odds of not hitting your mother f
s--- and then you actually hit the only freaking card that can save your as
arrrrrrrghhhhhhhhh! QUEEEN of SPADES!!!

RIVER?!?!? WHAT f
RIVER?!?! GOOD NIGHT Peeps!!! I just lost $150 for the night!

Bottom line: You;ll loose big pots with these hands more than you'll ever win with them. Chances are, if you are one lucky SOB, you'll win the blinds! Should've folded them and called it a day! Would've only been down $25-$50 instead of $125-$150.

Comments welcome!

  • funny, you sound like me a couple years ago... get ready for the variance lecture.

    Here is my two cents worth.. if you truly believe this statement, you are a complete idiot and should give up poker from this day forward. You played this hand correctly and should think of the other 80% of the time you will win this hand. Don't forget, there will be times you are holding the QQ and you suck out against aces.

    What are you going to do now, fold aces and queens?

    I WAS JOKING JIM..., geeeeshhh I raised didn't I?!?!?
  • got lucky and got away...,

    there were three big chip leaders that night, I took the one chip leader down earlier on a big three way all-in hand AK vs KJ vs 88... (flop blank, turn blank, hit my trip 8s on the river), and had this last hand worked out like any 90/10 odds, I would've taken down chip leader #2 as well.

    The third chip leader was a solid ROCK, and so the only way you'll get him is via bad beat! Good luck so I didn't bother!

    Maybe I should post the details of the three way all-in 88s as a "brag" to feel good about this hand..., hmmmm, you think?!?!
