Default Where Did I Go Wrong?!

I'm playing in a 1000FPP qualifier on Pokerstars for the WPT event in Paradise Island. I've made it to the final table and there are 8 of us left. 4 qualify for Sunday's main event and the 5th gets 7k FPP's.

Since there were only 47 entries, the blinds are still 200/400; 25 ante. UTG open/raises for 800, 1 fold & I'm next with KK. There is 1600 in the pot. I make it 2400 to go.
Everyone folds to the BB who calls and UTG folds. BB has about 500 more chips than I. There is 4600 TC.

Flop: T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

BB bets 2000. I raise to 12,500. BB goes all in, requiring me to call another 4K approximately.

BB has JTs, with top pair, a gutshot str8 & backdoor flush draw. How does he call, much less put me all in?
What does it take to convince someone you have the best hand without risking your whole stack?
I re-raise preflop and then raise him on the Flop........

Why are you complaining? Is this a bad beat post with the results removed?

I'm complaining because I wouldn't think anyone in their right mind would call, much less go all in with JTs. Am I missing something? Did I do something wrong? He got a J on the River.

Or, give me an explaination of how I failed to let the guy know that I had an overpair. Hell, he should have known that preflop.

I've entered 5 of these 1K FPP qualifiers and have made the final table 3 times. Lost to these type situations every time.

Why would you want him to fold when you're ahead so much?

The way you act, it's like you wanted to show them your cards when you raised preflop and tell them 'I got this one, fold.' Stop whining.

If OP owned a casino, he would sound like this:

"How could you put your quarter in there, you idiot? Don't you know it's a losing wager? Jesus christ, now I have to pay you a hundred grand! Could this week get any worse? I wish people would just quit playing the slot machines."

YSSCKY


BTW, IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS, ITS:

YOU SHOULD SERIOUSLY CONSIDER KILLING YOURSELF.

WHERES THE BAD BEAT POLICE, THIS IS A GREAT SPOT FOR THEM, BEFORE THIS POST GETS LOCKED.



to the op: listen very carefully to this piece of wisdom-

1) you don't understand poker if you are angry about this.

2) you should realize that no one cares about your bad beat.
