so frustrating

i keep getting killed in these tourneys going in with the best hand. pissing me off. tuesday night i go all in with AA and get called by QQ of course he hits his Q and I get knocked out 30 of like 210.
So then tonight 3 tourneys I played and each one I get knocked out as a decent favorite.

Guys limps in middle position, I raise with AK of clubs on button, blinds fold. MP reraises me all in, I call. He shows Q8 of clubs. Of course the Q falls and he wins the hand. UGH

There's something I'm missing or doing wrong somewhere along the line. I need to read again because i haven't touched a book in a while.

no stats to report as I'm tired...I'll try to post tomorrow for the past week. Not a great week though :(

  • PLO = Pot Limit Omaha
