I was playing a low buy in tourny on PS last night. the very first hand im dealt JJ. Im in first position. I raise but nothing to big. I get like 3 calls then i get an all-in. Someone then calls his all in and its back to me. I fold becasue im thinking someone has me beat. They flip them up and show AJ and 10-2. The AJ hit 2 pair to win the hand menaing i would have trips. I was pissed at this point. I still dont know if my laydown was correct. what do you think?

The second thing that happend is the hand that busted me. I was about middle of the pack chip wise. i get AA. I raise and a dude goes all-in. 2 people fold and another person goes all-in. I have dollar signs in my eyes b/c this triple up gives me a very big chip stack. One guy shows 99, and the other 10-10. The guy hits the case 9 and busts me out. I got 64th out of 700.

Im still on tilt.

The JJ hand: I would have folded in that case as well. Jacks aren't what I'd call a powerhouse hand. Against a push and a call it's not even close for me.

The AA hand: Nothing you could do; simple bad beat.
