    Default Did I play this hand right?

    Please review this hand and tell me what mistake(s) I might have made. Was my call on the river wrong?

    Thanks!

    OOP I am folding this preflop so I am not in this mess in the first place.

    Turn and river calls are okay...More like the turn call is good, but the river call is an, "ehh, crap, it's only $3 to win $21. I have to call," type of call.

    Fold preflop, find a better spot a few hands down the road...

    somebody correct me if im wrong, but first of all i wouldnt have raised preflop with KJs OOP. but as played, the flop bet was a bit weak. although you are giving him wrong pot odds to call, the implied odds probably are enough to justify one. also, after his flop call, you have to put him on at least some sort of hand/strong draw. on the turn, here is your big mistake. his bet is either a bluff on the ace, or he really does like that ace. you need to fold here or at the very least raise him here to see where you are at...but since you called, you gain no information on what he has. he still is betting on the river, and its not enough to be a bluff. He has a hand, and can your kings and queens ace kicker be enough to beat anything he has? Lets see: J10, 910, Q9, Q10, JQ, K10, KQ, AQ, A10, AJ, AK, AA, KK, QQ, JJ all have you destroyed here. The AA and KK are improbabe, but the QQ and JJ and possibly Qx could be being slowplayed. There too many hands that can beat you here...I'd fold.

    Folded... b/c why else would he call your raise post flop. I would think either he would have had AQ, AJ... my two cents.

    They already said it before but I wouldnt raise preflop w/ KJ oop.
    I h8 online poker.

    I agree that the preflop raise was pretty loose. I don't agree that I should be raising on the turn considering that he could have a full house (AQ) and I would be drawing dead even if a spade came on the river.

    The most interesting thing about this hand is the flop call / donk bet when the As turns.
    Is he repping AK? AJ? He must know he's likely ahead on the flop, so he calls your c-bet.

    Is he afraid of AQ and trying to sniff it out with a blocking bet? Scared by the draws???

    I am just SURE that donk bet is a tell... but I don't know of what.

    Oh and fold pre flop!

    Was that the WORST possible card for you on the river? Replaces your bottom 2 pair with a slighty better 2 pair, but ugh. The only thing you beat here is K9 or J9.

    You are getting 7:1 to call, but I think you are at best a 10:1 dog. We'll allow you to fold on the river here. The clincher is that they won't get to see the junk you are raising from EP.

    freechus9-Wouldn't you think that you could eliminate some of the hands you posted based on the previous action? We had a call of a good size raise preflop (5xBB) and a call on the flop. What hands fit into this mold? I would say that leaves us with AQ, KQs, AJs, QQ, JJ. But you can more than likely throw away hands like JT,9T, QT, AT etc..I agree that you could somewhat disregard AA and KK because they didn't reraise preflop. Unfortunately for me my loose preflop raise ran into a much looser call (Q9 off).
