I feel like i couldnt have played this any better (1/3 no limit cash game)
So here's the deal I bought in for about 110 bucks and found myself down to about 62 two hours into the game. Blinds are 1/3 and I'm getting kind of antzy. I'm first to act and I get dealt rockets..great hand in the best possible position I thought because the table overall was pretty aggressive (there was almost always a raise preflop). So I believed the right idea in this situation was limp in and I did. The 2nd guy(pretty tight player) to act raises the action to 12 bucks total. Around the table are 5 callers! I couldn't be more estatic. So what do I do? I shove my final $59. I get two callers from early position (2nd and 3rd players to act and they each had about 150ish to play with. Flop comes: 5,5,8 rainbow. Great flop because I put both guys on something like QQ, AK, AQ, JJ. You know, over cards. 2nd guy checks and 3rd guy bets 50 which gets the 2nd guy to fold. We both flip up and its my aces to his 98 of spades(seriously?) Turn is a 5 and the guy rivers an 8. Are you kidding me? That was a long drive home for me. Anyway maybe the moral is to not try and limp in with aces? Any and all comments appeciated.
