    Default What was I doing?

    Okay, sorry I dont have the HH....Slammed Full Tilt off after these hands. Lost 2 buy-ins in 15 minutes. The table was so fishy so I bought in again only to suffer my fate.

    0.05/0.1 NLHE

    First hand---Just sat down a few hands ago....Get dealt :As: :Ks: in LP...everyone limps to me, so I pump it up to like 0.95 or so and get 2 callers.

    Flop comes :Qd:

    ...checks to me so I put in an over bet of like a little over the pot size...one guy calls.

    Turn comes :Th:

    ........I should have let it go right there, but no, I put out a 2/3 pot bet....guy puts me all in. It was like another dollar to call. So I just did, what was I thinking.

    Guy turns over :Qh: .....unbelievable, i couldnt shake him PF or on the flop..........

    River is :Qs:

    Bye one buyin....what was I thinking?...I slapped myself hard for this one.


    Hand 2----------

    Now this one really gets to me, now remember this is agains the very same guy I got pwned by earlier.

    I am dealt :Tc: :Td: UTG +1

    I raise to 0.40........couple callers, then guy raises it up to $2. I have absolutely no idea what he has if he can call a $1 raise with Q2s........maybe AK, AA, KK KJ, who knows.....

    Anyways flop comes



    I bet out $2, and he puts me all-in again. Figure I am beat to QQ-AA, but by now I am on tilt so I just say what the hell.......

    He flips over

    Did I get outplayed here?....or just got beat by a guy overvaluing 22 and getting lucky?


    I think I need a few days from playing after tonight....

    1st hand) Terrible play by me, therefore the break

    2nd hand)....who knows...


    Lemme know what you guys think. It will really mean a lot to me this time. Thanks

    himself fucker.
    The second hand is a fold. His reraise preflop usually signifies a top teir hand and the super aggression on a low flop should seal the deal.

    The first hand you just got a little too zealous.

    All right thanks.....thats what I figured. I think the biggest leak in my game is controlling tilt. I easily would have folded the second hand if I had my wits about me.

    Thank you though. I think it just mostly hurt to see what he was raising $2 with in the second hand......

    I agree with rilla about the second hand.

    Exception is that he reraised for isolation/dead money issues.
    Sometimes if someone normal raises and I hold a small PP I will reraise like 3 times his raise if there were like 3-4 callers (repping AA/KK) just to get it heads up + the dead money. Then I can take it down on the flop cause of the strength I have shown pre flop. Of course I lay down if he re-raises or if I get another caller and I dont hit.

    Given your read, I don't think it's an auto-laydown w/ TT preflop there. I might come over the top again.

    On the flop, I can see letting it go. Further, the first hand made this guy look like a calling station. Calling stations raising big can be a big warning sign.
