Hand thats been bothering me

[JasonP530]

This hand was played at 25/50 online, which at the time was much higher than I had ever played. This hand is nearly a year old, but still fresh in my mind. To date, its the biggest pot I have ever lost(not that it matters). Are there any other possible lines, and did I play it correctly?

I bought in short and had worked my stack up to 3200 by doubling though with AK vs AQ when the flop came KQ. The Villian in question is a well known online player.

Someone limps and villian raises to 225. There is a cold caller directly behind him and the SB calls. Im in the BB with AA and reraise to 900. Villian and cold caller call.

Flop is QT8 no suits and I move in for 2300. How'd I do? Any other way to play it?

other than moving in PF, no other way.

You got more than 1/4 of your stack in preflop with the best hand; they are not getting the best of it in calling you.

Not many options on the flop given that your stack is smaller than the pot.

this hand has been bothering you for a year [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

flop is fine. you got more than 25% of your stack in preflop as a huge favorite, nuff said. the flop doesnt really matter, you are all in blind.

pf id prob. just shove it in, it'll look like a mid PP or AK trying to shut everyone out.

heh, i type slow.

Let me further add that this sort of result is why you should play games that you are adequately bankrolled for. If you had a $150K bankroll, your perspective on the hand would change entirely.

Imagine if this were a .25/.50 hand. You re-raised to $9 preflop, and went all-in for $23 on the flop. Routine, right?

I had plenty of bankroll at the time, was just a lot to lose on one pot.

I keep thinking of it because Spirit Rock/Mahatma called me with JJ and spiked a 9 on the end for the straight. All the posts about how great he is, and I have only a few hands against him(of which this is one). I think it was a really bad call, and from what I can gather he wins a ton, so how he could think he was ahead or anything.

hes called 4k on the turn with an over and a gutshot

RAMBLE!

[kagame]

are you STILL thinking about it?
