Default Zebra food. A 10+1 AQo hand I totally %$&#ed

This is the very first hand of a Party 10+1. Honestly, I put this guy on a worse ace, and I was just hoping he didn't hit his low card. I was quite surprised to see him turn up 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] because I was sure my ace-high+queen was good, and his raise was a load of PP 10+1 1st hand A6o BS.

This looks like tilt. You decided when you looked at your cards you were going all-in.
Fold pre-flop.
The rest of us make money off of players who call an all-in on the flop with A-high.

Hero raises to t100,

Error.

Hero bets t200

Error.

Hero calls t500.

Confusing.

First rule of poker is never bluff an idiot.

However, that's only because it is taken as given that you don't call all your chips with no hand [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

You're better than these people Slim, don't resort to guesswork.

I wouldn't call the AQ reraise an "error" so to say, however I wouldn't play it like this. The rest of the hand is insanity. Betting something on the flop is OKAY..but 200 is a bit higher than necessary IMO, and calling the allin is insane.

Anyway despite all this, I would just call preflop.

You know what this is? This is thinking that the player with the better starting cannot help but win once all five cards are on the board. It's also the second-worst hand I can remember playing.[img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img][img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img][img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img][img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img][img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img][img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img][img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

I can't believe I posted this hand where I play like a total fish and ZebraAss doesn't even comment on it. He was begging for HH's last night. At least I'm not getting a lot of "fold preflop," because I've got to think that anyone who will fold AQ to a single minraise from a late-position player in a 10+1 is taking the whole "weak-tight early" general guideline too literally.

How about this line instead?

Sorry I went to sleep right before you posted this. Yea man that first one is pretty aweful at least it was the 2nd worst hand you played. The 2nd one you posted is better. But if CO did that to me I would probabally yell at him for being stupid. Good fold.

2nd worst I remember playing... Selective memory loss could be involved if the play was any worse than that.

I think I played at a table where you bitched out a moron for calling your all-in with a ten-high flush draw against your set of nines. He deserved it and he had more outs than I did there. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]
