Slowplayed the 10 J didn't he? That hand is very possible here. So is K 9.Either way I hate pushing here because we only get called if we are drawing dead.If you really think your hand is good you can just call here then make a smallish but not too weak-looking defensive bet on the river. If you still get raised, let it go.

The lead on the flop is a bit aggressive for my tastes, but it's probably a difference in style. On the turn, you really need to slow down. What do you think he called you on the flop with? You have second pair, bottom kicker, and you push when he reraises you? I think it's an easy c/f on the turn after you got called on the flop. Even if he only has a heart draw, are you really willing to risk your whole stack with this hand? Being LAG is fine, but this is suicidal.

I hate the way you played this hand. I don't really know what else to say. The only reason the push on the turn has value is if you fold a better queen, or get called by a 9. I don't think this EVER happens.Seriously, just check/fold the flop.Or, I don't mind the flop bet, but when you're called, c/f the turn.

Sorry..it was late. I was trying to say that there are approximately 1,795,233 hands that beat you here, but everyone else said it better!

Moral of the story#1: When your opponent doesn't raise your bet on the flop, that doesn't necessarily mean he has a bad hand. (This comes down to reads, mostly.)Moral of the story#2: Play cautiously with marginal hands on coordinated flops.
