In retrospect I want to say stop and go, but in reality I can't play QQ [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Yeah, it'd be tough to call 1 unless you know the guy to be really LAG PF.

2 I think you gotta reraise at least something, maybe make it 8-12 to go, then things should get easier.

3 You can't get away on flop for min-raise when its all in... You're very likely to get shown flushdraw or 10's, and you're gettin great odds from the pot even if you are a slight underdog, say vs. AK Ds.

You haven't given us any reads or any other information we would need to make the best judgement available, so I'll just say what I would do if it was my first playable hand at the table.

1: Muck -- You're at best coin flip with both, but probably very far behind one or the other. BB probably has AK, UTG+1 has AA/KK/QQ

2: Muck -- While it's possible one or both are on flush draws, the likelihood of one of them having a set seems far greater.

3: Call - He doesn't have any money left and you have an overpair. You're getting 3-1 on the call, so this should be a very easy decision.

Yeah sorry man, I hadn't been at the tables long and was multi-tabling as well as looking through this site (sloppy I know)

Hand 1 - I mucked - opponents show AK and KK [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Hand 2 - I mucked - opponents show A8 and JJ [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Hand 3 - I called - opponent shows me TT [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

First hand, fold. You don't want to go 3 way all in with QQ preflop, unless you know you are playing with maniacs. If you don't have a read on that preflop you will soon enough.

Second hand, fold. I think its farfetched to think that the raise and the all-in are both behind QQ at this point.

Third hand, call. Alot of hands will have pushed there, many of which you beat.

Default Re: Results

you must reraise preflop in hand 2. you could have gotten both to fold if not at least the A8 hand to fold.

With a preflop reraise, the JJ is less likely to go all in on the flop.

you should also reraise hand 1 preflop but maybe you had a read where villain only raises preflop to 5xbb with monsters and you were calling your Qs for set value.
