Another hand just played at a different table, NL $50.

I've been rushing and dominating whenever I enter a pot for quite a while, and I'm making people pay abnormal amounts to see a flop with me.

I've built my stack up to $160 odd. I have everyone covered.

Get KK in MP. EP raises to $2. I raise to $8. LP reraises to $19 or some bizarre amount (note: whenever someone tries to make their stack look big by betting like $4.75 I get quite skeptical anyways). First raiser folds it back to me.

I should maybe have started worrying here, but I was caught up in the rush. People had normally been just calling me and if they started playing back at my pot sizers on the flop I'd rethink if I didn't have a pretty strong hand.

Anyway, I think about reraising but for some reason I just call. I have this thought in my head that he's playing back at me because he's sick of me shutting people out so often, plus I won a big pot against him half an hour ago where he bluff-reraised all-in with 99 vs my KK from late position (I won).

Anyway, I put the other guy all-in for his remaining $70 or so after a flop of [Jc]X.

He calls, I get no help and he has AA.

In my defense, I had seem him put all his money in with 99 preflop. I definitely could not put him on AA for sure and I thought that I could possibly get him off a set of jacks with that kind of flop bet.

I'm putting myself in the stocks for you guys to throw cabbages at me.

Did I do real bad?

I mightve gone all in preflop (emphasize might) since he overplays hands, but I would not have gone all in on that flop. With that flop, AA, QQ and JJ all beat you. He will only call if your beat. Surely he wont call wont call an all in of double the pot with AQ would he?

No way hes folding a set of jacks.

KK against AA is a really bad thing. Most of the time you lose your stack to the opponent..it's just the way it is.

You needed to slow down on that flop though. It was not a good flop for you at all....

Dammit I got carried away. I think to be honest it was sheer bull-in-a-china-shop "I AM UNSTOPPABLE" unmitigated arrogance caused by being the table captain.

I will retrain my ego in preparation for the next time that situation occurs.
