Could I have 'protected' my hand better in hand #1? Can i get away from my hand in hand #2?


Hand #1.

Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: Hero is UTG with Q, Q.
Hero raises, MP calls, 3 folds, BB calls.

Flop: (6.40 SB) Q, 6, T (3 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, MP calls, BB calls.

Turn: (4.70 BB) J (3 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, MP calls, BB calls.

River: (7.70 BB) K (3 players)
BB bets, Hero calls, MP raises, BB 3-bets, Hero folds, MP caps, BB calls.

I intended to check/call one bet on this river and muck to any raises. Standard?

Final Pot: 16.70 BB

Preflop: Hero is UTG with T, T.
Hero raises, 1 fold, SB calls, BB calls.

Flop: (6 SB) 9, 7, J (3 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets, SB calls, BB calls.

Turn: (4.50 BB) T (3 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets, SB raises, BB 3-bets, Hero calls, SB caps, BB calls, Hero calls.

Is this a clear 'just take the damn free card dummy' situation? Or should I bet here with my boat redraw? Can I get away form this hand when its 2 bets back to me? If i have Ten clean outs, i certainly have the odds.

River: (16.50 BB) K (3 players)
SB bets, BB raises, Hero folds, SB calls.

Final Pot: 20.50 BB

Hand 1 standard. Hand 2, I think you have to bet the turn. At least you know what your up against. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] Unfortunate results on both, not much you can do on either. Calling stations until they hit their hands.

I hate that [censored]... A flopped set should not lose to a four straight or four flush, period. Sorry, I'm just venting because I just had a session that had a whole bunch of hands that went pretty much like your posted hands.
