I've had this happen to me twice within a weeks span.
I'm all in preflop with AA, I getted called by A 10. I lose because two 10's come up. I could have understood one of those bad beats, but twice in one week?
what do you do, that's poker

Thats harsh. But moving allin preflop with AA may not always be a wise choice. I was playing today with AA and the flop came The turn is and river is . By the time i reached the river, i was 99% sure that my opponent had the remaning deuce. So i folded (He showed me the deuce in his hand). True i lost a lot of chips by betting on the turn and river, but it was not as much as moving all-in preflop.

How exactly did you act preflop, since the villain is in the hand with 2-x. If you had made a big raise or even pushed, I don't see how he could have called any of it.

If the chance arises for an allin preflop with AA (I wouldn't just shove my chips in, I want action) then of course I'm going to take it. The biggest beats I see aces take are when someone either tries to play it too smooth and limps or they min.-raise, keeping more people in than desired. If the entire table moves allin and you call with AA, yes you're going to win only a little more than you lose, but you've got the best hand and you can't back down.

That shouldn't shock anyone. A lot of people play with crappy hands online.
