i got AA and raise pre flop. i get a caller who seems to call all of my raises to piss me off. flop comes out rag rag rag all spread apart but having 2 clubs. i raise, my caller re-raises, i go all in for $70+. he calls being shorter stacked with about $40 with Ac 4c and rivers a club.

did i do something wrong here or was he calling with his whole stack on a dumb draw? whenever i call on draw i get raped

Bad beat. Don't sweat it. It sucks, but you made an okay play.

you said you raised pre-flop. what was the raise? it could be a horrible play if you didn't raise the proper amount pre-flop. when the flop comes with 2 of the same suit i am always cautious, irregardless of whether i have AA or not. if you didn't raise enough preflop someone could limp in with a PP and hit a set on the flop which crushes your AA. always ensure you raise the proper amount preflop to chase out anyone with a mediocre hand.

enough about preflop. say you raised the right amount and made the same play on the flop. i'm not sayin i would make this play with 2 suits on the board, but he was simply an idiot for callin an all-in on a draw. you want these types of people in your hand because he's only gonna catch 1 of 3 times. he just happened to hit when you were all-in. sucks.
