You went wrong when you posted this hand without looking at the preview to see if it was actually right. Take "Texas " out of your hand history. Also post reads.

Re: Coordinated boards. What Im I doing wrong?
Ops, thanks.
Both BB and MP1 were loose. especially BB who played almost everything til the river and was also aggressive betting and raising often.

What was the question again? This hand is fine. Consider raising preflop if SB will fold.

Looks fine to me. You're lucky that BB was afraid of the flush and didn't raise you on the river with his straight.
I've learned to hate catching 2 pair when I have connectors. 2 pair with J2 is much better. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] |

Re: Coordinated boards. What Im I doing wrong?
Well, obviously Im not satisfied with the outcome of hands like this.
Im getting completely crushed when the boards are coordinated like this. Acctually I believe this is the leak in my game. When I hit two pair, top pair or overpair on boards that look like this (or similar), then I just cant get them profitable. This is a typical hand. I hit something, take the lead, get called down and lose. And when I win I win early in the hand winning a tiny pot. The tiny pots I win do not add up to cover the loses. So I'm thinking there must be something I am doing wrong or don't realize. |

Raise PF, otherwise you're golden. Pretty straight-forward stuff--this hand will make you money more often than not.

Re: Coordinated boards. What Im I doing wrong?
QJo has won me some money. Not a lot--it's tied with JTo--but it's ok. KQo on the other hand is my 8th best money winner.
When the board is co-ordinated like that and you're not the one with the straight then you have to slow down even if you have 2 pair. |
