I want to share this with you guys, nowdays i can laugh about it but i allmost killed my self when it happend here it goes:
i was in multipoker, i have played at the low limit tables for a long time, now i was about to go up to a higher level, I really felt ready, so i found a lone fish sitting at one of the tables. i tought just one guy, easy win,hehe. ok. i sat down and here comes the pocket cards AA wow! I make a big raise, and he reraise me!? whata hell?? anyway I called he's big reraise and the flop comes up AK4 wow, trips of aces!!!, this is a great start at the higher tables I think, so I trow in another very big bet, and this guy without any tought reraises me again, I thought whata damn idiot, Im gonna take all your money, I call, another card comes up it was a low one, cant remeber wich one but it was a low one, like a 3 or 4 or somthing, now there is 4 cards on the table its AK4x (x is the one i forgot) ok you wanna play lets go, i went ALL-IN ! guess what, the guy calls and here comes my nightmare a fuxxxing KING! the guy has 4 of a kind Kings and Im broke. so im back at the low limit tables again. remember this can happend to you, but lets hope not, unless im the winner

Your play was actually good, although I think its a good idea to slow play aces heads up sometimes. Everything you did was ok and everything he did was ok. There is no way you could lay down trip aces, the nuts in this case until the river. I also cant blame him for going all in with you. It was pure crazy luck that landed that fourth King.
You have made a bankroll error, however. If one lost buy-in causes you to go broke then you were playing limits way beyond your bankroll. I suggest reading more on ftr and some of the literature to avoid more costly mistakes.

yea i know, my banroll was to small, and i was so certain to win that hand so i went in with all the money i had, I still have to small bankroll for those tables and im not sure how big it should be? (info on that would be helpful) but im working on it, and i read evrything i can get my hands on, its sometimes hard to find good players at the smaller tables, usually they play very bad and that makes it difficult, not knowing what type of hands they get. its not impossible they just limp in with rockets or pocket kings,if someone knows a place with good players, please let me know. Thanx

There's just nothing you can do about that hand. Poker's a lovely lady... but she can be a cold bitch sometimes.
