Too big a raise?
Is bison's convertor not working? Anyway, I want some opinions on a hand. I'm wordering if I raised too much here. No reads. Its the second or third hand of the tournament. Caught QQ in the BB.
***** Hand History for Game 2467092595 ***** NL Texas Hold'em $5 Buy-in + $1 Entry Fee Trny:14487771 Level:1 Blinds(10/15) - Tuesday, August 02, 18:59:36 EDT 2005 Table Table 14240 (Real Money) Seat 3 is the button Total number of players : 10 Seat 5: BamaFan92 ( $800 ) Seat 2: herberg ( $770 ) Seat 10: bargeAAA ( $800 ) Seat 6: mammmoth1 ( $785 ) Seat 3: bigdippertwo ( $950 ) Seat 1: beekeepbrewe ( $775 ) Seat 4: ibbuggered ( $620 ) Seat 7: shelley40 ( $750 ) Seat 8: Dallandy ( $825 ) Seat 9: fouadm ( $925 ) Trny:14487771 Level:1 Blinds(10/15) ** Dealing down cards ** Dealt to BamaFan92 [ Qc Qh ] mammmoth1 calls [15]. shelley40 folds. Dallandy calls [15]. fouadm folds. bargeAAA folds. beekeepbrewe folds. herberg folds. bigdippertwo folds. ibbuggered calls [5]. BamaFan92 raises [135]. mammmoth1 folds. Dallandy folds. ibbuggered folds. BamaFan92 does not show cards. BamaFan92 wins 195 chips Here was my thinking... - 2 limpers and SB completes - Don't want play queens with 3 other players - Don't want Ax staying in - I definately have the best hand at this point - I will be out of position after the flop Too aggressive, or just take the small pot here? |

Re: Too big a raise?
Good raise at a $5 table. I'm surprised one of the limpers did not call.

Re: Too big a raise?
I'm a relative newbie to these tourneys as well, but I think a raise of 60 - 75 would be more appropriate. Basically raise about the size of the pot or a tad more. That should knock out one or two opponents, but be small enough to encourage a loose caller or two.

Maybe a little too big, but nothing criminal.
