In hindsight you would have liked a fold, but in all honesty you should be happy to get people calling your AA with A rag. It's about the best position you can be in. They either have to hit 4 running cards for straight (like this) and 2 out of only 3 cards left for trips.

Totally unlucky though! You'll get this next time (and about 90% of the time in general)

[daddyspoon]

i know it was just bad luck. the question goes out to anyone that likes to play ace rags. at what stage preflop do you start to lose faith in it?

[teebs]

If it wasnt suited, im sure he woulda never called.
That was very unlucky nontheless.(and woulda peed me off )
If it makes you feel any better, yesterday I got Aces 5 times and lost them all...I then got Kings and ran into Aces -_-'

Yeah I could tell you were asking that question. It's case of what the call "Level 1 thinking". Against a random hand you're a favorite. It's a shoveable hand when you're getting low late in tourneys. So they consider the hand "good" and the thought never crosses their mind that someone else might possibly have something better. Even if it does they are like, "what the hey?" *snap call*

lol looked at a online hand calculator.

preflop he was 11.31% to win
after 1.01%
and even on the turn was only 6.82%
