    If you're that desperate to cash then fold. Otherwise, just get it in and whatever happens, happens. 

    Yet another pointless thread started.

    For starters, its in the wrong section.

    Second, you offer nothing about the hand, chip stacks, villain tendencies, table dynamic, blind level etc etc. So it's almost impossible to give advice on, but I still gave you my advice based on the very limited info.

    Give a hand history, background info and stick it in the right section, then it won't go down as just another pointless thread.

    Why didn't you mention this in the original post? Regardless, I'm done trying to help you. Think you're beyond help anyway.

    Good luck at the tables.

    Said his QQ was beaten, didn't mention anything about how the hand panned out or stack sizes involved.

    Edit - Cheers for deleting your post Glenlg!

    I said if you're desperate to cash, nothing about being able to afford the game or not. At least read what I put properly.

    If I've read it right, it's about as standard as a hand gets towards the business end of a tournament. No-one did anything wrong, just unfortunate your hand couldn't hold. But this is poker.

    Edit -  you could also just jam the button here too, though result stays the same probably.

    +1 ^

    looks standard Al.

    I'd min raise or open shove, to try and get him to put it in as wide as possible.

    You were lucky he was as strong as AT.
