My opinion is probably worth nothing since my entire bankroll is worth a single one of those bets, but I'm a decent player, and I turned my $50 deposit into hundreds... so I can agree with Limpin' that very few players are going to lay down QQ here. Especially with all the money that's already in the pot... I mean, if you look at the board, someone with QQ isn't going to be intimidated by the rags. He'll probably think you missed completely, and that your big bet is a desperation play. Honestly, who would lay down QQ in that situation? I'm sure many of you "pros" would reply "I would", but how many hundreds of dollars have you potentially missed out on b/c of it? Probably the same amount you've gained. That's poker.
I've played alot of players (donks) who don't raise preflop with their QQ, KK, AA and then get it cracked by rags on an obviously straight looking board.
I've laid those hands down before, but I also haven't many times... you know, it's easy to get "married to your hand". There's an endless amount of possibilities where you can get beat by a worse hand, or beat a better hand. We've all gotten lucky, and we've all gotten unlucky. In this particular situation, you were the unlucky one.
I don't think the Joker made a bad play at all, it might be a bad beat, that's true, but he played it like anyone else would... it's happened to me, it's happened to everyone else... deal with it.
Besides, if I'm correct in my assumption that your year of birth is 86, you're probably a spoiled brat playing with his parent's money in the first place... so you shouldn't be too affected by this particular hand, eh?

Oh, so if they just recently found FTR they must be stupid? That's right....because you are the first and only player to ever start playing poker, is that it? If someone hasn't had 500+ posts they are a fucking moron....
wow - i think that 2nd place finish really went to your head lamb - Either that or you have just always been an asshole and since you have your little "trophy" now you can really be free to just be yourself....
Ok, i'll respond to this one first. The reason I replied with his post count was in reference to the fact that someone who has just joined this forum felt the need to make an assumption about someone's personal and family life. I'm sure you can agree with me that this was a little ridiculous. "Hi, i just joined this forum, i know absolutely nothing about you, i see you were born in '86, therefore you are a spoiled rich kid..." And in reference to your 2nd place comment, it hasn't gone to my head. I come across wrong a lot of times online. I know that, and I end up posting these clarification threads all of the time. It is a leak I have in the game of life. However I don't believe that me assuming that this five time poster is being extremely ignorant is anywhere near as bad of an assumption as it is for him to assume that aces is a spoiled brat based upon his birth year.
