    I think that this thread should be titled "45 aces".     :-)

    Ha ha I know the feeling mate, only play small stakes thank goodness and have decided to start playing cash this year, on a 2/4p table yesterday I had aces 3 times, kings  2 times queens 2 times and 10's once in a hour and half spell.  The only hand that held up was aces once. I was playing tight and raising x4/5 with all the hands.  I flopped 8 high with my tens, and lost to trips,  lost £7 all together (which is about 1/6 of my BR.   I bought in or £4 y.day then reloaded another 4 lost them then reloaded 3.  I managed to build that up  to £9.20 by playing (TK LOOK AWAY NOW) ace rag and Q 10+  was only 80p from breaking even then, was thinking about leaving I got dealt a KK ended up all in on the flop and lost 5 quid against A high.  Had my Kings beaten by AK early this morning and decided to give up.

    lol, but seriously, when all in pre flop it doesnt matter weather its the river card thats the ace or the 1st card, it just feels worse because you have the chips snatched away from you at the last minute. Sometimes its better to not commit your whole stack pre flop with KK, unless your short stacked, then if the flop does not include an ace then get the rest in!!.
