Playing .25/.50 NLHE, max buy-in is $50. I'm up to about $80, with the next largest stack to my right at about $120. I get dealt A
A
in BB, only me and him are in the pot, so I raise to $2. He re-raises me up to $10, and from his play, it seems like he is trying to steal my raise, so I defend with a raise back to $30 total. He pushes back by raising all-in, and I make an easy call. Cards flip over, and it is my A
A
against his... 3
7
. I'm feeling great as I can practically feel the money in my hands, especially when the flop comes A
2
J
. Turn comes 9
, but I'm too overjoyed to realize that the river hits 5
.
I think I'm going to cry.
