Re: Tight-weak laydown of KQs?
Not gonna touch the first question as it is just an unfortunate occurance that tends to happen in poker.
But what are really thinking about on the second one? The allin from mid position obviously is not going to be a complete bluff, just because he is LAG doesnt mean that has junk. You did say that you thought the second had a hand, so why would you even consider calling, let along agonizing over it? Obviously with AK and (read dependent) AQ you have to make the call here, but KQ is one of the most overrated hands and a hand that I feel get over played.
The fact that you would have made a straight is extremely unimportant, because you cant play hands results dependent. Just because it would have been the winning hand this time, does not make calling the correct play. Just wait to better cards, or be the one to move-in... calling all-in usually reserved for top ten hands and maybe a few more (once again read and stack dependent).
Cheers,
Pat
