The past 5 times I have had them (in live cash games.. $1/$2).. they have been cracked 4 times. I have not been slow playing. The first time I had them, 2 positions before me raised to $5 straight... I raise to $20 straight.. with 1 call. Flop is Kc 8s 4c. I bet $30.. guy calls. I am assuming he has clubs.. or maybe AK. Turn comes 10c. I check.. guy bets $75 dollars. I take a while... and lay the hand down.... and he shows K 10. The time I won a guy raises to $10 preflop. I raise to $30. 2 calls. Flop is Js 9s 4h. I shove all in for $45.. I get one call. He has 2 spades. Turn is the Ace of clubs.. river is a rag heart. I cant stand getting these cards -.-

Aces will get broken ocassionally. You have just been unlucky several times. Dont be turned off aces just because u lost a couple of hands!

I understand raising to isolate but did you have to raise to isolate each time? could have just called and wouldnt have lost as much since you folded

If you're aces are getting cracked, it's variance that's poker or maybe you're just playing them wrong and you don't even notice...
