How I wish I would have played it?
bet 2k on flop, checked turn, fold river. I only saw maybe 3 hands, but I felt like I couldn't give a free card, and the turn bet was pretty silly in retrospect...

Re: pocket 6\'s I guess no good
 

No half decent player would check - call ANY no pair hand here EVEN AK. Especially when there was no raise PF when you are called on the flop you should be done with the hand as you only beat 22-55 (which also would most likely not check call) and everything else beats you.

2 check calls.....does this seem like a trap too you?? One medium sized bet on the river... I guess the pot is laying good odds but this is either one ballsy and well though out play(the kind I like too make actually) or your just not good here. The flat call on the flop is worriesome. The flat call on the turn is really bad. Im folding on the river here personally , if its a bluff well he got away from me here.

Agreed. I wrote in the chat that I thought she had a quads, the only problem was the smallish river bet. Sometimes I have trouble laying down a hand, and this was one of the situation, I was about 90% sure it wasn't an overpair but quads. I really don't like how I played the hand from the turn on, and I didn't have any read onto whether my hand was good or not...

One thing I want to write while I am semi drunk at 2 AM in the morning. A NLHE really comes down to one thing, and that's not making a single mistake. One mistake is all it takes to bounce you from a tournament. I only lost half my stack on this mistake, but all of it on the second one. A negative attitude or getting impatient is the worst thing for a poker player. You can forget about any other leak, these two in my view are the worst, and coupled together, bounced me out in 200th place. Like I said earlier in this post, I'm a little drunk, but it sometimes makes it easier to reflect than being sober...

Yeah try to stick with straight marijuana during these things lol... Man this isnt even a hard lay sometimes you just gotta lay it down even if you got a hunce 66 isnt a hand to get too stubborn with JJ or even 10 10...and it gets a little more tricky.

Re: pocket 6\'s I guess no good
 

I do think the 2 calls and bet out are most likley a real hand. However, I do think that there are many players out there that would call the flop w/ somethng like AT. A flop stab seems fine But this doesn't seem like a hand you want to get too involved in. I would just risk the free river card, posibly call a small river bet, but most likley give it up.
