Okay, sorry I dont have the HH....Slammed Full Tilt off after these hands. Lost 2 buy-ins in 15 minutes. The table was so fishy so I bought in again only to suffer my fate.

0.05/0.1 NLHE

First hand---Just sat down a few hands ago....Get dealt :As: :Ks: in LP...everyone limps to me, so I pump it up to like 0.95 or so and get 2 callers.

Flop comes

:Qd:

...checks to me so I put in an over bet of like a little over the pot size...one guy calls.

Turn comes :Th:

........I should have let it go right there, but no, I put out a 2/3 pot bet....guy puts me all in. It was like another dollar to call. So I just did, what was I thinking.

Guy turns over :Qh:

.....unbelievable, i couldnt shake him PF or on the flop..........

River is :Qs:

Bye one buyin....what was I thinking?...I slapped myself hard for this one.

Hand 2----------

Now this one really gets to me, now remember this is agains the very same guy I got pwned by earlier.

I am dealt :Tc: :Td: UTG +1

I raise to 0.40........couple callers, then guy raises it up to $2. I have absolutely no idea what he has if he can call a $1 raise with Q2s........maybe AK, AA, KK KJ, who knows.....

Anyways flop comes

I bet out $2, and he puts me all-in again. Figure I am beat to QQ-AA, but by now I am on tilt so I just say what the hell.......

He flips over

Did I get outplayed here?....or just got beat by a guy overvaluing 22 and getting lucky?

I think I need a few days from playing after tonight....

1st hand) Terrible play by me, therefore the break

2nd hand)....who knows...

Lemme know what you guys think. It will really mean a lot to me this time. Thanks

The second hand is a fold. His reraise preflop usually signifies a top teir hand and the super aggression on a low flop should seal the deal.

The first hand you just got a little too zealous.

Thank you though. I think it just mostly hurt to see what he was raising $2 with in the second hand......

I agree with rilla about the second hand.

Exception is that he reraised for isolation/dead money issues.
Sometimes if someone normal raises and I hold a small PP I will reraise like 3 times his raise if there were like 3-4 callers (repping AA/KK) just to get it heads up + the dead money. Then I can take it down on the flop cause of the strength I have shown pre flop. Of course I lay down if he re-raises or if I get another caller and I dont hit.

Given your read, I don't think it's an auto-laydown w/ TT preflop there. I might come over the top again.

On the flop, I can see letting it go. Further, the first hand made this guy look like a calling station. Calling stations raising big can be a big warning sign.
