AA is NOT uncrackable. In the game you MUST know what hands to play and when. Also ,you MUST know that ANY two starting cards can be beat. Does a pair beat a straight? A flush? Two pair? Part of the game is being able to deal with bad beats. It happens, nothing you can do but say 'nice hand'. Is there EVER a reason to lay down AA pre-flop? NO, NO and ummm. NO. But way too many times Ive seen people play AA all the way to the river with paired boards, and four-flushers, and single card straights out... and then whine and cry because their AA got cracked. Like they didn't care if they busted or not, as long as they got to show someone their AA. In my, humble opinion, if you believe you're beat, then you have to lay down. If you believe you're ahead in the hand, stay in. Pretty Zen stuff. Also... to the people that say they NEVER win with AA-Play them right (don't allow limpers or cheap callers to see a flop), keep a chart for three months, and then try to maintain that perspective. I DARE YOU
