Unavoidable situation?

Full tilt 1/2 cash game: 9 handed.

I'm in BB with red AA. Middle position raises to $8, I reraise to $30, he calls to the flop.

Flop comes out K J 2 with two spaids. Now I followed through and bet the pot on the flop. Villian immediately moved all in, I was already pot committed so I called (it was about twice my bet). Villian shows AKs for a top with a flush draw. Anyway, flush hit and I lose. Did I misplay this? or is it one of those unavoidable situations?

Thats definitely unavoidable...you played it well and got your money in the pot with the best hand...its never good poker to play scared...

Unavoidable...you're an idiot if you dont call there...Noonan and I were talking about these things the other day. There are situations in poker where no matter how good of a player you are, you are just going to lose, regardless of how you play the hand. That hand is just part of the game...."Nice hand, sir."
