Paid for Making Worse
The last hand might have been roughly even. This one wasn't. I had AcJc in the bb and about 165ish left.
utg opened for 25$. Button called, I called.
Pot 75$ Flop A 8 3 r. I have 140$
check, utg bets 45, button called, I called. I have 95$
Pot 165$. Turn 6. check, utg bet's 55$, button thinks and folds, I call.
Pot 255$, I have about 40$ remaining.
The River is a beautiful Js. I check and he puts me all in and I say "I hope that I rivered you" and call and show immediately, he groans. button said he also had AJ.
I think I was wrong on every street, even the flop over call sounds wrong since his C-bet had already been called. Min raise maybe and fold to more action?

Top pair good kicker, short stack, pot is half your stack, I wouldn't be thinking FOLD, I'd be thinking how do I get all-in?
I probably shouldn't have played to begin with. a UTG raiser that's already been called, would need to know he's wild to play, which he was not.
That's true - if UTG is a tight-ish player, you're usually not going to be in a profitable situation calling with AJ, suited or not. AQ though, I'd consider a preflop shove.
