[woohoosue]

on the turn this guy has committed 900 chips ..i put out a 450 preflop...why is he there?..after flop i put a 400 bet? ..why is he there?ok so on the turn he had a flush draw and a str8t draw but dam it .....I wouldnt have been there! ok now bash away and tell me what i did wrong..I mean all in after flop ..I lose everyone out of pot ....do I want that? ok just went all in with QQ a guy with a 8 comes with me and he gets an ace on turn after an extremely long pause (can there be a random generator override?) ok now I'm just going paranoid ..

I would have just shoved it on the turn, maybe even the flop. I don't know how you'd possibly put him on a straight there, so to keep him off his hand I think you just gotta put it in with a strong hand like that. But do it by the turn for sure.

[PANAMHIEST]

I dont really have anything to critique on this hand, other than the fact I would have just shoved it preflop every time win or lose. i critique the guy that beat you with such a horrible hand, or that he would continue to draw it out even after the flop.

That is your first problem right there. You can't expect people to always make the correct play at that level. Now on with the look in.

Preflop I don't like your raise at all. You went 9x the bb with is a bit big for AQ off. I would think raising to around 3 to 5x the bb would be better. I will explain why later. Now, your opponent calls. What do you think he puts you on? Did you consider that. He probably has you on something other than AA or KK, more like 6's or 5's. He calls looking for the over cards or the flush. The total in the pot is 1000 chips. You bet out on the flop, which is a good play, but your bet wasn't big enough. You gave him 3.5 to 1 to call on the flop. On the turn, when he picks up a huge number of outs you bet 350 into a pot of 1800. He was calling 350 chips into a pot of 2150. He was getting 6 plus to 1 to call on the turn. With flush draw and straight draw outs, plus the possibility of hitting his over card and thinking he was good you should get 15 outs. That is 30% to hit and he is committing like 12% to the pot. I call that every time.

Now, let's say you went to 4x instead of 9x the bb. The pot on the flop will be 500 chips and your bet of 400 looks alot more serious. I personally think your whole problem began preflop when you raised too much. You bet on the flop made your hand look like something it wasn't and cost you the hand.

Just my thoughts.

it was AQ suited not off ...does that change your thoughts on the preflop ? why i bet what i did....thought i needed to make it huge....when the flop came i really think i needed to all in or pot raise ...but i think this guy was stickin with me all the way .....he had a 10 5 suited? would you have play for 9x raised preflop with that hand? but thanks for your thoughts...i agree once the turn came ..im in all the way with his hand but before that "why is he even there?" .....i mean the flop gave him a hand where he needed to runner runner either for a flush or a str8t ...so u think he called because the bets weren't big enuf for the pot that was out there...so he had to stay...yeah i like my preflop bet but i really think i need to go strong on the flop when it hit.

thanks all!
