So i was at a live game playing at casino and this is how the hand played out. By the way it was 1 /2

Im on the button. Villian 1 is under the gun and villian 2 is to the right of me. I get dealt pocket kings, Villian 1 raises to 10 bucks. Villian 2 raises to 45. I make it 90 to go. It goes back to villian 1 who pushes 104 all in. Villian 2 raises all in as well to 500. At this piont my stack is 200. Basicaly im gett 3 to 1 to call.

Little background villian 1 about 10 hands before this He and i were in a hand and he raised all in about 100 bucks with AJos after i raised with to 30 with pocket 10's I folded and he showed his hand.

Villian 2 was playing lose but i picked up a read on him. I was postive my read was good.

I figure that villian 1 has something like A J AQ AK Maybe AA QQ. Im pretty much priced in to call him any ways its like 10 more to call him which is a no brainer. I figured that i had him beat. Even if he AA i would still end up making 100 bucks off of villian 2.

From the read i was getting from Villian 2 i figured he was trying to push me around. He might have pocket aces but i couldn't put him on that hand from my read even though he was representing that hand. So i call and guess what they both had. Pocket AA's both of them. No help from the flop turn or river. And im done for the night.

I figure i made the right choice due to my read on villian 2. Villian 1 wasn't really in the picture. Im not steaming about this, just chalkin it up to poker variance. What do you guys think?

Robb is an unknown quantity at this point
I'm all-in here, with one of Phil Helmuth's "beat them to middle" calls. I think you're reads are solid and your way ahead of the ranges you estimated. All the rest is variance.

NH, maybe raise a bit bigger initially, but effective stacks make your raise OK.
