OK I had QQ at a 0.01/0.02 table....

One person raised preflop to 0.11 so I reraised to 0.30... called.

Flop was 7clubs, 3 diamonds, 5 hearts.... I did a pot bet for $1.02.

Turn was 10diamonds.... with flush draw showing I pushed.

Called he was holding 10 10.....

Then the guy tried to say I lost because I slow played. What? OMG? If you bet a 10X plus BB preflop, does that not show top pair preflop? He said he called because he had top pair on board... What am I missing? I keep losing to hands like this.

I think you played it wellbid probably have done the same thing except raise a littoe less pf and a little less on the flop (which are my mistakes)

sucky result...its just a cooler turn card. feel like even if you bet the pot or turn slightly less, the money might end up in anyway unless you have a strong read he has a set/2pr/64

With his raise on the preflop to 5BB I would except that he is holding AA or KK. Not 10 10, it's pretty risky to play with them (Don't hit a set and there is J,Q,K,A on the board = 90% lose).
I think you played correctly, but your raises should be less, that's why you lost that's money.

correct me if im wrong
30c pot pre
you have put $1.30 by the turn, so you have 70c remaining?
and then you go behind?

if thats correct then everytime you play the hand its the equivelent of winning $1.70 slansky dollars
because it was all committed before the turn had been seen, theres no way this isnt going all in, and theres prety much no way he can fold

Perhaps you have should check on the turn to see what he do, but i would play also with a raise, maby even all in with qq before the flop. But you played well also i would say its bad luck. Im a agressive player with qq, but you can loose this hand easily.

I would do the same thing as you did with maybe slightly differences but i think that outcome would be the same, generally in this situation you want to get called by a pocket pair, which wont turn a set that often and maybe with weak ace, in that situation you would earn a lot of money against these players...

I am not agreement with the best sizing on the flop or jamming, cause from a game theory and math perspective, i think your use of the shove here is a little over rated, but then again what is small stakes anyhow? LOL

Another thing is dont expect logical answers from beginners playing at low stakes, we have all been there when we explain to others our reasoning which never makes sense....i dont think the other guy had a clue what slow playing was, and most expert players there will peel one card also :)

Naa he was just a calling station. I was trying to get him to fold. I did a strong bet preflop he called. I did a pot bet at the flop which he called even though most of would have folded with 10 10. We would think ok the person that bet preflop 5 X BB is holding a top pair. Just really tired of getting beat by these guys that call with next to nothing. Everytime I get a bankroll moving up, this stuff happens and it is gone again.

Slow played? I dont think the guy knew what he was talking about. You played like any pro would; you re-raised preflop-altough I would have gone 4 to 5 time the initial raise, you laid down a big raise after the flop, as a pro would, which would show strength against the flop. the fact that he picked up a set on the turn, just a lucky card, he just got lucky. As for saying he had top pair on the board- WRONG! QQ meant you had top pair on the board. Sounds like more of a donk than a good player.
STICK TO YOUR GAME, because there's nothing wrong with how you played it!!!!

Well, if I could pick one thing wrong it could be your reasoning.

Although you were probably pot committed on the turn, you shouldnt have shoved to give bad odds to a flush draw (right?) The only hands he could have that could put up with that much betting and benefit from a flush would be AKs or maybe AQs of diamonds.

I'm no expert myself, but perhaps you can still gain something from this hand. Depends on the opponent, but you could have considered that he landed a set- I would deem that if he's decent, he would have to have TT+ or AKs to continue with such large bets.

Then again, it is the micros. And I suck myself so don't put too much weight on this! For your consideration....:dontknow:
