Message: [QUOTE="OzExorcist, post: 674810, member: 23910"] I don't think this can be written off as "just a bad beat" - OP was behind for the entire hand. You should be worried as soon as you get a call on the flop. You're likely only getting called by another pair of aces (or better), and every hand with an ace in it other than A2-A3-A4 beats you. I'll agree that the turn and river cards made it difficult and then almost impossible for you to fold, but this is the reason why you shouldn't get attached to ace-rag hands pre-flop - even if they're suited. They just make for difficult decisions on the later streets, and they'll probably cost you more money than they make over time. [/QUOTE]
