How much did you win? The loser in that situation usually wins more money, 50% of the bonus. 25% to the winner of the hand and the table chops the rest. At least that's how it works up here.
Well... with 3 community aces... especially if there was a lot of money in the pot pre-flop or something, you gotta figure it's more than just possible someone's got the 4th in their hole.
Still, I feel ya, man.
If it weren't for hands like that, people who know how to play cards would never go out.

Online, I'd agree.
Live, I'd risk pocket J's with three A's on the flop every time (betting patterns etc. not taken into consideration of course).
What accounts for the difference in how you'd bet, taking away betting pattern/tell factors?
Besides what you mentioned, position and pot odds to name two...neither of which would have played a factor in my decision to play pocket J's anytime with 3 A's flopped.
Online, betting pattern MAY have played a factor, although doubtful. Tells are nonexistent.
Live, in order of importance...cards, tells-betting pattern-position (those three can go hand in hand), and pot odds. You constantly hear play the man, not the cards. Yeah, that's great. Online, again, not possible. Even live, I'll take great cards over having tells on everyone at the table everytime. Tells can be misread or intentionally misrepresented. Cards ultimately can't. The best players in the world can't win a tournament being dealt rags ALL day. They'll win some pots sure, but eventually better cards will get them.
Badbeat jackpots...jackpots of any kind are for suckers...you just won YOUR MONEY...hell they already take a rake...their charge for services...they then take another $1 or $2 so you can try to win it back by hitting long shots?
Not to mention, that money doesn't always make its way back into the poker community...here in Vegas some retarded midwesterner on his one and only trip gets lucky wins $10K bye bye! never to come back again
