You had A-Q soooted

Villain had a badly overplayed flush draw, QJ is my guess, because he didn't raise on the turn, he figured his Q was no good

I suck at putting people on hands though wink.gif

You have A-10
Villan has A-8 or something like that.

10 10 most likely - you called the flop raise to look weak, and then bet out the turn to confuse/push off any draws out there. The all in at the end is easy.

See, and here I was thinking this one would take a while. Well done. Of course I would have played it exactly the same with Pocket A's... but, when I said at the beginning of my post that I just wish he had had more money, I figured that maybe someone might recognize that I had the absolute, undisputed, pure nutz!

When I bet out on the river, I think at that point he called figuring we'd split the pot, both having Aces and 10's, with the Q on the board as the kicker.... boy was he incorrecto.

Good call!!

If you had 10-10 here, the topic of this thread needs to change to "Tell me what I did wrong."

You raise it PF to .75 when there is already $1 in the pot, why not make $1.50 to go with a hand you need to protect like 10-10. Weak.

On the flop you just the minimum raise with the second nuts but on an EXTREMELY draw heavy board. Weak.

You bet 1/3 of the pot, giving the villian here better than 4 to 1, or enough to call any two clubs, any two diamonds, or an OESD or any draw in the universe basically. Weak.

Nice river

Why did you bet out on the turn if you just called a raise off of the flop? You could have milked him for a lot more if you wouldn't have taken control on the turn...

Wow... criticism that I didn't bet enough, and criticism that I bet too much. I must really suck at poker if I can manage to do both things wrong. So I think I'm gonna quit playin altogether.

Yup, you are right... I could have milked him for a lot more. He only ended the hand dead broke. But, perhaps if I had loaned the guy some more money and then I'd taken that away... maybe then my play would actually be called decent. Probably not though.

No offense guys, but I was the one reading my opponent, putting him on a hand, and betting in the manner that I knew would get the most out of my solid hand.

For Absolute: My preflop raise may have been weak (it was 3x the BB which is my standard raise unless I've got A's or K's.) I'll give ya that I could have bet more there.

But, that said, had a couple of overcards hit on the flop, my 10's wouldn't have looked so hot. I was in early position, and I would have taken a shot at it post-flop no matter what fell. But keeping the pot somewhat lower preflop meant that I wouldn't have had to throw all my cash out there to bet the pot if the board was especially rough.

On the flop, I dunno where you get that $3 was the minimum bet here. I could have bet like .50 actually. And there was only like $4 in the pot post flop and I was first to act. So I was giving them 7:3 odds, which was fine by me if they thought that was OK to play on a draw.

On the turn, I actually expected another raise from my opponent, and I would have thrown it all out there at that point. His solid raise of $3 on the flop gave me a good read that he wasn't on any sort of draw.

Good golly, you guys are harsh. Gimme a break.
