    Strange, That would not work on my other computer.

    Anyway, though I give up onit, would the villian really want to bet into it straight away with the goods?  My thoughts were QQ/KK would not bet straight into it, maybe AK or AQ would but again surely you would be looking for value.

    On this table there was some really strange players, big bets creating big pots with any suited cards. I done ok on there but left in the end as I lost 45% of my buyin to a backdoor straight, that had been raised by me pre, UTG  with QQ.

    Long storty short I think it wa something like runner runner and he turns over ace 2. Pre flop and turn I am notm sure what the villan was even hoping for... But hey ho... another lesson learned.

    if you are going to fold that flop then you should fold to the raise pre

    Yeah I'd fold pre-flop given the size of the raise, especially after a min-raise open means you've hardly invested anything.  If the table is playing proper maniac then maybe there is a case to 4b shove and gamble (if you so wish), but that would be very oppo specific?

    Against Robbo67 I definitely fold pre here lol... would recommend blocking out players names when you post hands!

    As i dont know the opponent id initially agree with geldy, if your folding that flop then you need fold to the raise pre. But after the raise flop i think you dont have a lot of choice but to put him all in personally, you could call but then if the turn comes anything lower than a jack and he bets the rest of his stack you probably have to call again anyway. 

    Thats probably completely wrong but thats how id do it :)

    If I think about it, I guess the point of me sharing the hands was because subconsciously I knew that I should of either did what I did (Fold) which as you say, I shoud of done that pre flop.
    Or GII - Which I now regret not doing lol

    As I said earlier, the aggression on the table would of been my motive.

    I'd say your initial raise should be bigger.. but you shouldnt ever be calling his raise.. 99% of the time its a fold.. and the 1% of the time you think he is playing crazy and raising big with any 2 then just reraise him all in.
