Hows this screwin yourself..

First hand last night at my local B&M. One before the button, blinds are 3/5, 4 limpers before me, one guy does a weak raise, I have AJ, I raise to 45 trying to buy the pot. Then hell breaks lose. All 4 limpers call, button folds.

Flop comes AT9 two spades. Everyone checks to me so I'm thinkin green means go, I bet $50, three of them go all in. I obviously fold thinkin "what the fuck did I get myself into?".

Pocket 9s vs 9T vs AK. Turn J, River Q, AK takes down a $800 pot.

Holy shit. Talk about green not meaning go!

nice fold!

It's just funny that you thought you were going to buy it preflop.

Well, let me correct myself, buy it or go into a heads up situation. I did not expect 4 callers after I raise it to 3x the current bet.

-- Though either way, it was a fucking horrible preflop move on my part.
