$20 pot

I was involved in a $20 pot recently. Most of my cash game play has been $0.25/$0.50 limit hold'em. Still working off a bonus on UltimateBet. So I don't get into pots this size very often. In this case I'd played a couple of $2.20/90 on Stars and busted out. I didn't quite feel like quitting yet so I sat in a $10 NL game. Then this happened.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (9 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

MP1 ($5.10)

Hero (MP3) ($10)
CO ($10.35)
Button ($5.65)
SB ($2.55)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with A, A
UTG calls $0.10, UTG+1 calls $0.10, 1 fold, MP2 calls $0.10, Hero bets $0.70, CO raises to $2.45, 6 folds, Hero raises to $10 (All-In), CO calls $7.55

Total pot: $20.45 | Rake: $1

Results:

CO mucked J, J (one pair, Jacks).

Yay for me. Nothing like getting it all in preflop with Aces for 100bb.
