was this a bad play?

sorry forgot to save the details so ill type it out.

so i had 99 in middle position with everyone before me folding. So i raise to 120 (blinds are 20/40) and get on caller, and one all-inner. so after the all in i figure the guy who called my 120 probably doesn't have that great a hand seeing hes the big stack. so i raise it from 650 (the all in) to 1100. the flop comes Q,Q,5, with two hearts. so i go all in, and the guy calls with K-10 hearts and gets his heart on the river! it was the blasted 8 of hearts.

so was this dumb would you say?

doesnt look like a bad play to me. I like raising istead of just calling in this spot also. It looks like u committed half ur stack preflop if thats the case the only thing i would of done different was pushed it all in making it harder for the other caller. Im pretty sure if u pushed it all-in pre K10 folds. either way though the guy shouldnt of been calling with K10 but u made it easier. seems like he just saw an opportunity to win alot of chips if he got lucky and he did

Obviously it was a bad move for him to call all-in on a flush draw(although he also had 3 king outs) but it was also a bad move for you to raise all-in with 99 on a dangerous flop like that when he could have a queen or an overpair.
Marginal play on both counts, but his WAS worse.
The bottom line is that you want donkeys to make bad calls because it is good+EV for you.

exact;y what i thougt, thanks guys.

on a side not- i just won another table! 19 more dollars in the bank!

I'm having trouble adding up the pot but it looks to me there might have been favorable odds for the flushy to call you. Also, i might have raised a little more than 120 to get the K 10 feller out before the flop. All depends on how he was playing tho. Not sure what his history was - if he was a callstation, and loose, or played agressively whenever he had face cards. In that case I would maybe have just checked.

This is easy to comment on armchair style and after the fact. I think you did ok for the circumstances. You just got sucked out on. One thing I have learned is that online play tends to cater to the flushes and straights more than live poker does. If you saw a potential flush draw, the correct move is not all-in, but rather bet to give unfavorable odds.

Sounds like you're playing againist a calling station.

well this certainly doesn't apply to me. if i get a flush draw on the flop, 9/10 times i don't make it.

I think the odds of hitting a flush when having a four flush after the flop are 7.48:1.

LOL, I hope you're joking. Everyone should know the chance of hitting the flush by the river is 35%.

Rule of 4: Multiply the number of outs you have on the flop by 4 to approximate the percentage chance you have of getting there by the river. So if you have 2 hearts and there are 2 on the board, that leaves 9 other hearts... 9 x 4 = 36% chance (approximate).

If you have 13 outs or more on the flop then you will get there by the river over half the time!

Yes, but nine times out of ten the other guy does.
