Hello again!
I am once again in awe, cursing pokerstars and shouting at my computer screen because of a bad beat. let me explain.
I'm on the BTN with QQ and the CO raises to about 3bbs.
I re-raise to 12bbs, the blinds fold and the CO is the only other one to call.
The flop comes pretty dry - 2 5 8 rainbow and he bets about 1.5x the pot.
I am shallow as it is and take this opportunity to shove and he calls.
he has K8o and so I'm ahead but the turn is a 2 and the river is a K.
It is these kind of hands where I feel like I'm falling down because I know I'm ahead, I try to get as much value as possible and then it ends up cracked.
Very frustrating, any advice is welcome.
