Default Re: Did I play my aces in game incorrectly

Micah - it sucks but the hand is pretty standard. I would bet more on the flop, and my gut told me J10 as soon as the turn hit. But it happens.

skleice- no joke. I only bought in for 40bb because I have watched them play before and most will chase at horrible pot odds and suckout. Incase a hand like this happened.

This is exactly why you want to buy in with a full stack. If this guy is gonna keep making preflop calls like this and chasing his draws, he will be your personal ATM. You will get unlucky here and there, but you will stack him most of the time. I play in a home game much like this, and I always bring 100bb's plus a backup 100bbs. Yes, I have been outdrawn by some ridiculous holdings, but I am by far the big winner in the game. Be happy when they chase, cuz most of the time they are pissing money away...good luck.
