I dont think i should have folded preflop.
His flop bet looked suspicious to me though. I thought it looked like QQ but was i paranoid or should i have figured him for at least TPTK so i have 0 outs and fold?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (6 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Hero ($3.95)
MP ($3.01)
CO ($5.06)
Button ($3.88)
SB ($1.79)
BB ($1.72)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with A, J.
Hero raises to $0.12, MP raises to $0.22, 4 folds, Hero calls $0.10.

Flop: ($0.47) 2, Q, 8 (2 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $0.06, Hero calls $0.06.

Turn: ($0.59) A (2 players)
Hero bets $0.30, MP raises to $0.60, Hero calls $0.30.

River: ($1.79) 5 (2 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $0.20, Hero calls $0.20.

Final Pot: $2.19

Im pretty much a 1,000,000% sure i should have folded the turn ... grrr now i just feel silly.
gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

Fold the flop, i didn't think your Ace was an out.

PF, that seems like an awfully big raise for AJs... And then you call the re-raise with it?? Hmm, I start thinking PP's very quickly here...

The flop call is OK... .06 into a .53 pot. Maybe your outs are good, maybe not...

The turn is where it gets interesting. You hit Top Pair, but he's not scared of it at all. I start thinking QQ here looking back at Pre-flop, and I find a fold.

River, he knows you have an A and he value bets which you call.
Hey knucklehead! Bonk!

Yea i played it really badly. i usually fold these preflop to reraises. All my raises are 6BB (12c) because i havnt found anything smaller that will get me the right number of callers and people are still happy to call with junk.
I think i was calling preflop to hit the flush draw then his flop bet made me suspicious but i still felt he was weak.

In the end he turned over QQ and i realised i was playing crap due to tilt and quit for the day.

Your preflop call on the reraise inst the greatest,you can probbly safely fold without exception but onece you have called what re you looking for. A jack high flop is probably a nightmare as you'll have top pair and probably be behind. An ace may be good, but it seems unlikely. That leaves you with two pair or a flush draw. You get neiher of these on teh flop so even though your putting nothing in the pot you dont have anything either. Id be tempted to fold it ten once you know yourself you ve made a sloppy preflop call
