    It's not terrible.

    Do you always 3-bet 99 out of the small blind? Going to be awkward hand to play after that.

    Can't work out the turn shove? The Q helps so many hands that he could have at this stage.

    this is total spew

    not a massive fan of 3 betting 99 pre oop, never gonna have a flop you like without a 9....altho the idea isnt terrible if you are going to 3 bet pre, make it more like 200 oop

    as played, im c/f folding flops like that, those kinda flop/textures will smash villains range pretty hard for draws or pairs and hes only folding smaller pp you beat anyway so i'd rather get to showdown here....

    turn shove is just mad, what were you hoping he folds? AJ/KJ? horrid!

    No, but the turn was even worse, seems like an impulse click, sometimes you just need to take your hand off the mouse and actually think about what youre doing. Use up the timebank, its longer than you think, just relax.

    the flop bet is too big. Whats your thought process here? what hands do you want him to fold? what do you want him to call with? what hands do you expect him to call with?

    If you hit the idiot end of a str8 try and limit the size of the pot as you are either a mile ahead or as in your case in a world of pain.

    Pre Flop bet more around 200 so would be 140 raise
    Flop Nice bet imo
    once called from there suprised you have gone all in afterwards with 2 overs and loads of hands ahead of you

    Cliff, liked the flop bet terrible shove imo

    Thanks Young gun,

    Was a little tilted at the time, id seen alot of loose calls beating me infact ive now decided im taking a month away from poker. This was probably one of the lesser hands but had 7 or 8 hands i was 70% or better when the money went in and lost, one i was 99.5% ahead all money went in runner runner 10s and boom the 0.5% won.
