massive cooler, hard to put the guy on AA here, I mean your never folding, but I don't even think about losing as he calls my AI

I read these in order to learn but don't usually have anything to add 'cause I'm not that good a player, but explain how it's obvious he has two aces here? He limps, he calls, he doesn't lead until an ace hits the board. I would have put him on ace-something, maybe even ace-king but not a pair of bullets.

Read the post below the one you quoted

Did. Still don't get it. I'm old and dull-witted!

J/K = Joke, so he isnt being serious.

It obviously as you said isn't obvious villain has AA.

Even if you suspect villain has AA here, imo it would be -EV to not get trip K's all-in on a board like this.

Big Mike: The one thing I would say about this hand, is that I'm not a huge fan of the flat call on the flop. With the flush draw out there many players will drive their draws, so by calling you are effectively giving villain a free card to outdraw you.

True enough, but if I pushed he would probably fold his flush draw, but fire again on the turn even if he missed. And I actually thought he was more likely on Ax, even AK than a flush draw.
Thanks for all your replies. I immediately stopped playing all poker after this happened to avoid massively tilting. I proceeded to watch the movie Mean Girls on TV with my wife and then have a productive session of 6max LHE later in the evening.

you have 2880 left there is no need to shove the flop, after villain bets 215, I raise to 750-800 area. By flat calling what are you doing if the flush hits on the turn, especially if you put him on an A.....are you going to call him down, or just straight release?

He definately could have Ax or AK here, but not sure it is more likely than a flush draw, they are both large parts of his range.

Do you have a lot of info on villain as you said its early in the tourney...how do you know he is going to double barrel his draw?

FWIW Mean Girls would make me tilt more than this hand

Classic set over set. Classic outcome. Nothing more you can do. Doesn't matter if its AA vs. KK or 10,10 vs. 3,3. Unless you've gotten an uncanny read on a situation like this, you're going to lose, usually a LOT.
Better luck next time. And I do mean that. I blame these scenarios on luck. The chances that you and an opponent both hit a set and you're on the low end.. it's just bad luck. I haven't figured the odds on this scenario, but I'm sure they are so low that it's gotta be bad luck. This happens to me more times than I care to recount.
