i am a pretty tight aggresive player but these people dont seem to notice.

before i got ahead of myself let me give you a run back of a hand last friday.

i had AKo and i raised all-in about 100 chips, one player folded but another called with 108d. guess what happened she hit a 10 and byebye i went. how can she possibly call 100 chip raise with that garbage.

oh but thats not all and this is no joke. later on that night in a new game i had KQs and raised 20 chips and got reraised another 20 chips (by my wife) now the player who called 100 chip raise earlier with 108d folded.

ok who cares right but at the end of the hand which i won with my kings, the player who folded before flop turned over her AKo and said damn i would of won.

how is this possible to play against, i mean come on a 100 chip raise call with 108d but on a 40 chip raise fold AKo. am i just really stupid or does this not make any sense to you guys and girls either.

any help and or advice would be greatly appreciated.
