Party Poker 0.50/1 Hold'em (8 handed) internettexasholdem.com

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with :ad, :as.
1 fold, Hero calls, 2 folds, CO calls, 1 fold, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (4 SB) :3s, :8d, :8c (4 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets, CO calls, SB raises, BB 3-bets, Hero caps, CO folds, SB calls, BB calls.

Turn: (8.50 BB) :9s (3 players)
SB checks, BB bets, Hero raises, SB folds, BB 3-bets, Hero calls.

River: (14.50 BB) :jd (2 players)
BB bets, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 16.50 BB

Results in white below:
BB has Ts 8h (three of a kind, eights).
Hero has Ad As (two pair, aces and eights).
Outcome: BB wins 16.50 BB.


Alright I know they say never slowplay Rockets or Cowboys but up until this point almost every pot had been raised from behind.I was looking to limp-reraise but that blew out the window.

That being said anyone think this hand can be folded on turn esp to the reraise?

This my sound like me being an ass but it's the truth you limp AA or KK your ass deserves to get them beat...

Ok so now we got you not limping AA and not posting on pokerhands and linking them here. If we could just get you to use the right converter so it works properly, there might be hope for ya

And posting a bunch of hands in one thread instead of making 50 of them a day...
