I don't know if the decision I made is terrible in the long run, but it sure irked me that go-round as AT and JJ eventually ended up allin by the turn, both unimproved.
Just my completely novice opinion: if my read says AA, I lay this thing down all day long. Getting destacked on a perfect read is just silly. I'll catch 'em next time.
