I think this was the FIRST hand I played. I started as the button and didn't play a hand until this one as the bb. What more can you do except cry?

[eejit101]

Correct raise preflop is 560. I can see raising weaker might inspire a shove.

Aside from that, nothing.

I'm going to write this hand off as a variance swing. After those that tournament I went to the cash table and cleaned house. I made up what I lost in that buy in and some extra.

Yeah, I agree. I would have to call that variance swing. That's why sometimes, I just get up and leave. Walk outside for 5-10 minutes. I don't know if that helps, but it works for me.

i am going to agree with eejit here......

i rasie to 550-600 will atleast push the six's out and it will make it tough for the 88's to call here......

if the 88's call the preflop bet he has enough to open shove and that will scream out set!!!

[Sassy12U]

I also agree with eejit on this one. The only thing that you could have done was to raise it a lot higher, especially after the limping pre-flop so that you would them possibly fold and you take down the action pre-flop.

You can't put them on 66 or 88 so don't think that you should expect that every time. It happens but a lot of things can be stopped by precaution thought. Sorry that happened :(
