This is my first big pot that I have lost, but I think I played this correctly. Sorry about all the "should I fold?" questions, but I think its inherent to human nature to question their losses even if they arent blatantly clear mistakes (which some of mine have been). Anyways I hit bottom set on monotone flop, lead wiht a pot sized bet, one caller, the UTG preflop raiser. Now if you question my call preflop, well Im in the BB and If I play this for set value I can get paid off by this opponent, so I dont think I went wrong there. Turn comes another queen, giving me a full house. I played it strong on the flop so I want to continue with that, 2/3 pot here, he calls. River comes a 6, I bet 3/4 the pot, he raises, I push. Villain tables Q9, takes the pot. There were only two hands I was worried about JJ and QQ, not sure how they would have played differently though. I wouldnt have been surprised seeing AA, KK, AQ, AJ, TT here, and I think that Id be ahead of opponents range most of the time. How would you play this hand?

I go broke there. Too many hands he could be overplaying. He could have trip Qs, a flush or even a straight. Make a note about that UTG raise though.
gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

Renton will become famous soon enough
 f'n QJ...

or QQ. QQ seems like the most likely culprit.

I don't see T8s, KTs, or QJ raising UTG.

You still hafta call this though.
