I need to know how to play this better...any/all comments appreciated. Im pretty much questioning every move I made here, should I have raised pre flop more?, I think flop bet was standard? (I think), and pushing was probably the worst idea on the turn but you tell me.

Oh yeah, no reads eather... /images/graemlins/frown.gif

After they call your huge raise on the flop, I'd be very suspicious. I'd think somone had a T.

Actually, the raise was a little less than 2/3 the pot and I was prepared to fold to any push here. I believed that any 10 would push because of the flush draw.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but most bad players think of raises in terms of times original bet, not percent of the pot. I know it's incorrect, but I think that's how most people at these 22's think.

Also, if you didn't put them on a ten, what did you put them on? A flush draw would have just hit his hand. I can't think of anything else worse than your AA that would have called your flop bet.

One of the reasons I posted this, I should of put more thought into the push though, so this is turning into a halfway stupid post. I can see JJ QQ KK, and yes AK because people love calling with two overs, dont ask me why.

I uh, pushed because I represented the boat?? and they are just so darn smart they can lay down their flush if they made it. /images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Honestly, I think made the ultimate noob mistake by not being able to lay down my aces on the turn, so I guess I figured out the best line myself. Thanks for pointing me in the direction.

I think you could have raised a little more preflop maybe 180, but it really wouldn't have made a difference. It was a pretty bad call, in my opinion by pocket sixes, but he had good implied odds. After he calls your raise on the flop you should be worried, and with 2 oppenents, I am almost sure someone has a ten or better. He has basically called off half his stack, even after all the action preflop, which also worries me. I think I bet smaller on the turn and probably fold to a big raise here. That being said, your all-in wasn't terrible, because it will probably get trips to fold, and idk how you can put him on 66 here.

Maybe for one of the callers, yes. But the second call? He sees a big raise and a call. I don't see him calling after that unless he has trips or better.
