Preflop is terrible. Make a proper raise to around 6-7bb. You want one or two opponents with your big pair.

Maybe you should read some of the articles on preflop play:

2 limpers, i like to make this .50 -.60, a min raise is way too small, you are going to get called down by people with things like K2.

raise pot preflop

getting all-in with one pair on a five way flop is suicide.

These "help me with AA" posts from relative newbies is starting to get on my nerves. Guys, if you read just a few hands before posting, your particular mistakes here will become obvious and your particular bad beat/bad play/or whatever becomes obvious.

The mistake on this hand starts with the min raise of the two limpers with AA -- that's suicide by poker. After that it just doesn't matter much what you did on the flop and turn or whatever. If you correct the first thing you did wrong, read the stickies, you'll never, ever, ever again be in this position.

No, nothing wrong with posting it -- but just a little reading and it'll never come up. OP would go "ah-hah, mr is bad pf" in a million different hands. I read for months before ever posting. Stickies are especially good. These posts are just getting to me.

But OP did everything else right, converted, made it clear, wrote it up nice... and now he'll never, ever make that mistake again. A little jibe will get him to read more stuff and post better hands and make more bucks -- and less clutter for the forum.
