oh, the pain. My so called mistake on the turn was irrelevant. Only Astin can flop perfect vs. AA and of course, instantly hit his draw.
was that a really bad board to give a free card on or was I just cold decked by the king of deck warmers?

What's the point of min-raising with aces?
Columbo, what the hell? I thought you were good at poker? Your one-minute mystery stuff is good...
You min-raise with AA and then check on a super-dangerous board? I hate that check because you min-raised. That gave everyone odds to call you with exactly the kind of the crap that that board would have hit.
Of course I don't have my own radio bit so what the hell do I know?
haha. Ya MRMBJC!!! DONKEY! I do not think you lost enough on that hand. I mean you should have lost more. I guess if you slow play a hand you have to be willing to accept the risk with the rewards.
The object of any raise is to knock out the interlopers and narrow the field. According to the theory of poker, I should raise just enough to get the job done. And I did. I got heads up at 70%+. So please, stop the "you min-raised so it is the mistake" comments. its not. plain and simple.
Now, that check on the other hand... I thought I was farther ahead. Really, I am supposed to take it down there?!
Its my calls on the turn and river that you should be looking at.
I mean, if the min-raise and check were wrong, then I am AWFUL at poker and will never win anything.
Although, I agree (reluctantly) with Waffles. If you try to get VALUE out of big pairs (AND I DO), I am going to lose some pots too.
Astin is very good about getting value from his hands.
