What did I do wrong here?

#1 07-20-2005, 02:46 PM

Hello,

I'm fairly new to the forums but have been lurking for quite some time. I've learned quite a lot from reading hands posted and suggestions from others. However, I don't understand where I went wrong here or how I could've prevented this. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

I don't know that you did go wrong with this hand.
I would have capped preflop (which you did)
I would have capped that flop.
Raised the turn (like you did) and after his 3-bet on turn gone into call down mode (like you did).
I asume by the nature of your language that you got beat. I don't know that there's anything else you can do. I think you played it fine sometimes variance just takes a poo on your dreams.

Yes, I suffered a horrid beat here by 32o. I thought I had read in the FAQ that posting hand outcomes was frowned upon. Is it okay to do so in cases such as this??

You can post results after a good amount of discussion has taken place.

This guy stayed in a capped pf w/ 32o?! Add this guy to your buddylist.

this is correct-not giving results sponsors better discussion. However " where did I go wrong " is a pretty good indication you lost [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I never thought about my subject giving it away.. lol

The part that amazed me most about the hand was that he/she logged off immediately after the pot was drug to their chair. I suppose I would've been too ashamed to stick around too. lol

Acctually I see that a lot. It's not that they are ashamed as much as there are some that just like the hit and run. They come in play terrible for a few hands hopping to hit big lucky then rake a huge pot and move to another table and do it again. I've found shame to have little to do with my opponents actions.

It looks good. You capped preflop and raised both the flop and the turn to protect your hand. You cant do much else.

Can you please explain to me how one protects their hand in a two person pot when the first person to act has bet into you?

Call down on the turn, minus reads of an absolute maniac hes got you beat.

I take it from your questions that you lost. I don't see anyway you could prevent losing to AA or a set or worse. Capping PF is Goot. I believe I cap the flops as well. When He comes out firing again on the turn, well, without reads, you gotta grit your teeth call down, then slap something.
