In the span of less than 10 mins., I was dealt the bolded hands. It seems like I was always holding the 2nd best hand.

QQ v. A10 v. Q10
board: J78AK

J10 v. A5 (stupid play)
board: 1038AK

A10 v. AQ
board: JA825

K10 v. A10
board: 10382Q

K10 v. KJ
board: 65389

In 10 mins., I lost, well... let's just say it was alot. Anyone else think I should take a pretty long break from poker? I don't know what else to do, here.
aka wildwest15
They all know me as a small timer, but that's about to change.

easy; QQ ok; j10 depends suited or no? Ace high beats you preflop

your preflop seems loose, but since I dont know the situation you were in and blind structure or if it was a ring game I cant comment fully.

your dominated A10 through K10 hands.


just get over it play smarter you will be fine.

 all of those hands with exception to QQ should probably been folded preflop, unless they were suit or you were in LP...otherwise, well, you saw the results of domination.

 dude you should never play KT if it's offsuit.
even if it's suited, you're going to want to be in late position to consider it playable.

another one you gotta watch out for is QJ. suited or offsuit, it's a death sentence when you flop a Q vs KQ/AQ/QQ, which i saw happening three times in the last two hours alone.

I limp KTs UTG and will open raise KTo from the CO/Button. Sometimes will play KTo from the CO/Button.
