Man, this hand freaked me out. I've been trying not to be such a sissy ninny passive player, so I've been trying to raise more often than call. I just feel that a lot of tight players like villain here would flat call with AQ... that's only the better hand I'd get to fold.

I wasn't really thinking it all the way through... I'm not even sure draws will call. But do we have to raise there anyway?

I dunno, plz critique my play.

NOTE: Spare me your "always be at 100 bb" comments... I honestly think i play bvetter when i start with 100 bb and work from there... if I'm playing bad I can lose a lot of money with auto reload, so better to just lose my buy in and cool off.

Why raise the turn? I'd just call again since AK, 88 are likely in his range. You chop with AQ, it's not a better hand.

Nice hand. I will raise the flop instead, as the villain may be just drawing.

Yea it was from a pretty bad session I played. I agree about the turn raise, it doesn't make much sense, only because he will call with better. Draws may not call that much...

Thanks for the feedback. I occasionally need to pst up hands here to see how bad I'm donking it, the feedback was much appreciated.

LOL I didnt notice the chop with AQ, man i suck
