All I can say is fold preflop. Suited semi connectors are best played in a cash game for a limp and sometimes to a min raise when in late position. You called 6x the bb from early position and don't know where you stand until after you decide what you want to do. Once he pushed on the flop you should consider any pocket pair above the board of maybe AK suited. I wasn't at the table to make the reads, but I can speak from experience that most cash game players at that level are not very tricky. They bet what they have based on what the board shows.

If you don't fold preflop, you really should of folded on the flop. That was not a good flop for your hand. Even if he checks the flop and now a face card hits the turn. Now what do you do? Does he have AK, KQ, AJ? It's too hard to tell until you show more weakness by checking. Now he bets, does he have the face card or is he acting off of your weakness?

Seeing as you are one of the few cash players on here I'm gonna ask a question. Do you use any sort of tracking software? If you say no, I have one for you to check out. I've used it for years and it is wonderful.

She isnt a cash game player

[ffcowboy76]

Was she just venturing into a cash game to give chips away then?

I think using stake winnings to win some money or something. All or nothing type thing.

like they said fold preflop. 69 suited isnt a good hand to call that big of a riase preflop with. whats even worst you hit top pair and though you were golden. you should of seen pp coming as soon as you got to showdown. i hope you learn from this and move on.

ps stay away from the cash games.....you dont do to good in them. the biggest thing i see people doing wrong is they think they can get rich quick in cash game and that is far from the truth. yeah you can win a big pot but if you dont know what your doing then you playing on luck which isnt good
