Why can't I get away from this?

I am sure that villain had KQ or 44, but you couldn't know that. You also have outs versus 2-pair. The money is not deep enought to fold AA postflop in this situation.

First off, you just said there is a good chance he has me dominated with top two or a set. So why wouldn't I dump if I know he's ahead. Or atleast call and try to keep the pot to a minimum

Secondly, what do you mean the money isn't deep enough? If the pot gats any larger, than I might feel compelled to call because it has grown to a point where I can't lay my hand down. Plus I have a huge stack in relation to the field AND have been dominating them.. Why not continue on my merry way. Plus the bettor has a ton of chips and this could get quite messy as the pot grows and the cards turn. Plus he is betting into me. Warning signals right off the bat. Plus What if the turn card is a ten? Now there is three to a straight and many combinations of twopair that fit my opponents range.

I think I can get away from this.

I know that he is ahead from the fact that you posted it, the way you presented it, and your asking why you can't get away from it.

I'm sorry you lost the hand. The lead into the raiser could be a big hand, but you can't fold overpairs to probe bets.

With deep money, you could call all the way with an over pair. Here, if villain has you beat, he will get allin eventually. You can't let him draw out if you are ahead.

Don't worry about this hand. This happens.
