Well to be fair, you hit 2 of a 3 outer on the flop lol You did nothing wrong, just reverse luck.

Its all about perspective. I was focusing on that my money all went in as favorite.. esp because he limped preflop.

But I am just learning fixed limit

I'm actually surprised AA was limped, usually that goes to a cap bet preflop. I like limit alot better than NL cause it limits your losses to the donks. I still like to play NL tournaments.

Then 4 hands later...

Check on flop hurt you there, should bet that out, don't slow play in the micro limits...He was calling either way, I would. Hes not putting you on a set of 7s.

I was going to check raise him to get in an extra bet. Either way he was short stacked and all in on turn with 4 outs.

Long term getting people to put all their money in with 4 outs or less should be profitable... but today it's kicking my butt

Ah all in, yes you want them all in with 4 outers agreed. It always seems they hit them 2-4 outers so often against us.
