Should I Have Known?
Here's a hand for you: No hand history available, but I'll lay it out: .05/.10 stakes 9 handed ring game Folded around to Seat 6: Calls BB .10 Hero in Seat 8: Ad Kc Raises to .35 All others fold, now Heads Up Seat 6 reraises to .60 Hero calls .60 Pot now 1.35 Flop (4d 2h kd) Seat 6 checks Hero bets .75 Seat 6 calls .75 Pot now 2.85 Turn (Tc) Seat 6 checks Hero bets 2.00 Seat 6 calls 2.00 Pot now 6.85 River (Th) Seat 6 checks Hero checks Seat 6 shows AA and takes the pot.  My thoughts were he was trying to pull to a flush, or perhaps held a mid- to high pocket pair. Was I the donk?

Re: Should I Have Known?
I think you played your hand well Your opponent played his hand poorly. You also showed some restraint by not betting top pair,top kicker on the river. A lot of players would have fired again. Maybe the guy with AA was trying to check raise the river? You lost the minimum in my opinion. Jason

Re: Should I Have Known?
Yeah I think this is just one of those hands where you are going to lose money. I agree that you probably lost the minimum. |

Re: Should I Have Known?
You played that as well as you could. Hitting the K was something that was going to be trouble against aces, but you managed to keep your losses to a minimum. It could have been worse if he played the aces differently. |
