Yes, another newbie looking for some feed back. I am sure all are tired of the flood of new people on the forum, but I thought maybe you guys could squeeze in one more. Anyway, this is a great forum and I am impressed with everyones willingness to help out the "poker challenged" (me).
I have been running pretty bad for the last 10 days or so, so I am beginning to think I am running bad because I am not playing correctly. So here it goes:
Party $1-2, and I get Ac, Qs in the CO. God I hate AQo.
MP open limps, LMP calls, I call (I know I should raise, and I used to raise in this position 80% of the time, but AQo has been killing me lately, and so I call--flame away), button calls, and the blinds come along for the ride ---6 to the flop for 6SB
Flop 3h, 6s, Qc
Nice, I plan on popping it. SB bets, BB folds, MP calls, LMP raises--I take pause and rethink. Uncoordinated flop, unlikely draw, so he has a hand, either strong queen, or 2 pair, maybe a set,--I wimp out and called---YUK! Button cold calls, sb folds, and MP calls.---4 to the turn for 7.5 BB
Turn 6h [3h, 6s, Qc]
MP checks, LMP bets, and I raise -- I thought that the 6 either counterfeited his 2 pair, or made me a huge dog. I decide the pot is big enough to raise, hope to knock out as many as possible with the intention of folding to a reraise. Button and MP cold call (wow), LMP just calls. 4 to the river for 15.5 big bets.
River 3s [6h, 3h, 6s, Qc]
Checked to me, I bet (I think this is a lousy bet I should have checked). Button folds, and both MP and LMP call.
Thanks in advance for your input
