i think you answered your own question.....you said you have seen him call an all in with low pocket pairs and any pocket pair has you beat at this point.....you prob should have never called a raise preflop with this hand....but even if you do when you miss the flop against the type of player you described i think you just have to give up and wait for a hand you can take all his chips with.....you can't beat pocket deuces at this point so i would just fold and wait to bust him later

If your gonna play QTo raise. Why limp?You totally missed the flop and called off a good portion of your stack trying to bluff a player you described as a “calling station”. Raise PF if your gonna play it. Fold to any resistance. Miss Flop? Move on.

If you are going to, make a move before the river so the guy does not feel "pot committed." Just my opinion.

Don't limp with Q10o. And then don't compound your mistake by calling a raise.

I personally claim to be a downright connosieur of the ol' "call-with-the-intention-of-bluffing-later-streets" move. It's effective if it's used very selectively. The very first prerequisite to that move working though, is that the player has to be halfway intelligent. If it's a moron that min. bets with nothing and check-pushes with a set... then you can't count on him to make a brilliant A-high laydown when you've "just called" every street.These morons only hurt themselves by playing like morons. Don't out-strategerize them to the point that they hurt you too.

I pray pacific poker gives me $10 to come play on their pos site again. Every time you post a SNG hand, half the people are busted in 2nd/3rd level blinds :roll:
