AA can't be beat ??

[enno]

Who says so??

Brutal mate but once they turn that 9 of spades they aren’t going away to anything except possibly an all in and even then they may call. 18 times out of 100 Aces are going to lose on average, the tough beats are hard to take for all who love playing though me included.

Barely no one who has played poker for a while.

I have a hard time winning with AA, especially in PLO.

To win a hand with Aces, you need to make an aggressive decision on the flop, at most. It's best not to let your opponent reach Turn and River, especially if you notice that they want to do so. However, if you do reach Turn and River, don't take the Aces pair as a winning hand unless you're the max on the board.
Good luck.

If you want to avoid such situations, the only thing you can do is stop playing poker. Or accept this ‘insignificant’ nuance and enjoy the game

Hey, that's me winning that hand...I have no clue as to why I was still in the hand...I'm going to assume that AA slow played and allowed me to stay in, or it was just before dinner, so I went all-in because I couldn't play longer...SORRY. Yes, this happens regularly...I have benefitted and lost many times with AA.

For me, AA = Always All-In 😄
Whether it's early in the tournament or at a crucial stage, pocket Aces mean maximum value or minimum loss.
Of course, it’s not a guaranteed win, but it’s hard to let it go — especially against a hand like J3!
I mean, if you’re not going All-In with AA… then when will you?
😅

What a pair of aces, but it is just a pair and very often it can be easily defeated from many combinations!

 

[EvertonGirl]

Of course AA can be beaten, so can KK, it's an Ace magnet, just kidding.

It's how you play them, if like me you play them like an idiot then you deserve to get beaten, I don't do that all the time, but it can happen.

AA doesn't win all the time, it just does a lot. 72o doesn't always lose, just does a lot, they can and sometimes will crack AA.

63 is my nemesis, cracking my aces. Both to different players one off suited, one suited, and as both players seemed capped, I've never expected 2P on both flops, booooo

 

[Igor Popadyk]

That's why poker is interesting and it is still played, that any starting hand can win

 

[kaynbergo]

How did your opponent see all the streets with his garbage map? Did you let him see all the maps cheaply? Or was it a crazy player who called all your promotions with this junk?

 

[MAFNL16061986]

its beateble if you got flush agsainst you like you see now or you must had the a of it then it was win

 

[Tadi]

All cards can win and lose. It's painful when lost with AA, but it happens to everyone. It is more etched in our memory when we lose with AA than when we win because we have high expectations of these cards but reality sometimes denies us.

 

[moraeskvmi]

brutal runner runner, but it happens, it's famous, it's rare but it always happens.

 

[thedarkman]

I was busted out last night with aces, PLO8 but aces all the same.

 

[ch1r4q]

Ahh, that looks familiar indeed

 

[bazza155]

Looks like you slow played AA for to long and it cost you.

 

[enno]

I know that AA can be beat by any hand - my post, I thought, was simply a good illustration.
I didn‘t mean it to be analyzed and it was obviously an all-in situation preflop.

 

[Brigistul]

It depends on the position and how many players go preflop! You can try All-In in late position when there are many players who have given Call or Raise, and if you are in UTG try a simple Raise and see what follows. After a ReRise, All-in is the best solution. That's my opinion. With aces, a lot of hands are lost!

 

[dzsire]

This hand not only illustrates that AA is not unbeatable, but also shows that any hand can be beaten. This should be shown and understood by every beginner.

 

[scobido]

AA is a pair just like any other pair, if it doubles it could be unbeatable, but even then a big royal beats it 🤭

 

[enno]

Of course, it’s not a guaranteed win, but it’s hard to let it go — especially against a hand like J3!

BUT you wouldn’t know he had J3 until it was too late 😤

 

[Dumdors]

This was ALL-IN preflop. I was waiting for my double up good time, and thought that, this is the moment. xD xD xD yeah sure.

 

[thedarkman]

If you can beat a carpet, you can beat aces.
