Re: QQ how bad did I play this?
 

um on the turn are you bluffing and hoping to fold a set or what? raise the flop if you want to protect your hand, don't raise it when the straight hits. i'm very very confused.

Re: QQ how bad did I play this?
 

Reraise preflop up to $30. 2.5 times the BB is not a proper raise.

As you got to a 3 way flop situation I would probably just raise the flop as you are probably winning. Hope to take it down.

Re: QQ how bad did I play this?
 

Raise it up to $20 when it gets to you on the button. Then on the flop you need to raise as well, find out where you're at and get some value out of AT or someone chasing a flush/straight draw. Looks like a set, TT or 88, but you played this far too passivly to minimize your losses, you need to get more money into this pot both preflop and post flop.

Ah, the old minreraise has finally found it's way into the 2+2 ranks. I am very happy about this.

Pretty bad.

Reraise preflop, 30-35.
If not there, raise flop.
On turn, given the way you played up to that I'd fold.
