Can someone say something...($50 NL FR)

[Pozzo]

to keep me from thusting my skull through my monitor? anything...

I know it's just a standard bad beat, but after 6 straight hours of getting pounded from every direction, it really seemed like my moment had finally come...

I ($66) open raise with in EP for $3.

Short stack goes all in for $10.

BB ($69) flat calls. I think about pushing but I am a bit scared about the BB call, so I call to see a flop. BB has only been at the table for about 15 min and I did not observe anything significant about his play.

Flop ($29) is . Beautiful. The 2 most likely hands I can put him on are AA and QQ, maybe AK. He checks to me, I bet $10. He calls.

Turn ($49) is . He checks. I push in for $47. He quickly calls.

River is .

Villain shows and wins $143 pot with the flush.

I don't think I could have played it any differently. I could have bet more on the flop, but If he called my all in wihout hesitiation on the turn, I imagine he would have called it on the flop. Unless you think that by underbetting the flop I showed weakness that made him think his Q was good...

reraise preflop. I get this heads up all the time, there's almost 50 bb in the pot already don't be greedy. If you're that afraid of AA (Which you should almost never be) then just fold as you aren't getting the odds. Push preflop and you probably win this hand instead.

I guess you're right that if I think he has aces I shouldn't call at all. I just couldn't see folding it, i didn't feel good about pushing preflop. (I lost all in with KK twice today, once against AA and once against AK. ) Good advice, thanks!
