Pocket queens, how badly did I play this?
Hello everyone, I'm new to both the STT forum and SNGs. I've been lurking a while, and have learned a lot. I'm not doing very well however, and I that I'm making quite a few mistakes and being out played often.
Here's one of many hands that I'm pretty sure I screwed up on: Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (8 handed) converter CO (t875) Button (t1295) SB (t1460) BB (t745) UTG (t475) UTG+1 (t880) Hero (t760) MP2 (t1510) Preflop: Hero is MP1 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t65</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to t200</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Hero calls t135. Flop: (t422.50) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Hero pushes all-in, CO calls t560. Turn: (t982.50) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> River: (t982.50) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Final Pot: t982.50 This was very early in the tournamnet, so I didn't have any reads on him. I thought it was possible he had AA or KK, but more likely he had AK, AQ or perhaps an underpair. I called with the intention of going all in if there were no A or K on the flop. The flop looked safe so I pushed. What should I have done differently? |

3-bet Preflop. All-in, and it's not close.
Letting an ace or king flop here is really bad. Getting a dry flop and not checking for extra chips (before you move-in) is also bad. |

Re: Pocket queens, how badly did I play this?
im assuming this is a 10+1 - 30+3. im also assuming, because im brilliant, that he had aces or kings and won. in a 11-33, im probably not folding QQ to this reraise simply because the chip stacks are so crap with 800 chips. also, why raise so big? meh i duno i dont play the 800 chip games, but i would prolly just shove it pf. holla
