No complaints from me on the hand, I certainly did not like the hearts on the flop, and I liked the Ten on the turn even less. Oh well, that's poker.

Big Game
There were 105 players in the opening event for the BBT3, MiamDon's Big Game. Limping UTG with AA is a play I will make nearly every time in a cash game. Unfortunately it did not work out and I hit the rail in 85th. Limp UTG with AA, pot bet on the flop, half pot on the turn. He raised to 3600, I push the remainder of my 7K stack and the heart on the river leaves me crippled. I can't blame Goat for making his play, he had a nice flush draw on the flop and picked up an open ender on the turn. I probably would have doubled up or gone broke in his position.

Seriously? That doesn't seem right to me.
Given the right circumstances it makes sense. I am not limping with AA from mid-late position mind you, but UTG at a table where I can expect a position raise behind me and often a squeeze on top. Obviously if I am not expecting someone to raise for me, I cannot make this play.
