The last two days I've had the same problem, and it has costed me a lot. Twice I was dealt pocket kings and once queens. I raise very high PF, and usually only got 1 caller, sometimes 2. After no over cards would come on the flop or turn, I would usually end up going all in by the river.
Much to my dismay, when I had QQ, my opponent had KK. And twice when I had KK my opponent had AA both times. These hands knocked me out of 2 tournaments, and lost me some money in cash games.
I am usually a tight-aggressive player, and when I get AA KK QQ I play them very aggressively. Was I playing these other hands to aggressively? Or am I just unlucky. If I'm playing QQ, and there is a K and an A on the board I will fold. But I am raising aggressively with no overcards, I'm just falling to a better pocket pair.
