Mistake 1: I guess I should raise more preflop?

Mistake 2: Folding the flop? I guess raising or calling is better, but how much better?

i make it 75 preflop, but not a big deal.

folding the flop is really good. oh no, my fault, i meant really bad.

Keep in mind you having two of the queens makes the chances of him having a straight less, as TQ is the only decent hand that has a straight here.

Well, you folded to KJ or AJ which you were ahead of both, so yeah.. I'd say pretty bad.

Today is QQ day apparently.

Yeah I raise a bit more preflop. Not a huge deal though. 75 or 90 for me here.

No I don't fold on the flop. $22. Even if I am behind, which I don't think I am, I have 6 outs. I raise.

Well it wasn't specifically in response to anyone, so who do I reply to? the OP? I was just pointing out one reason why this is a bad fold beyond "don't fold overpairs in 22s".

I will try and be more sensitive to the needs of threaded mode users from now on.

If only you had any idea how to spell 'faux pas' it would make it that much better (or less worse).
