    Preflop raise could have been more 35-40p as once people raise anything they don't usually fold. C-bet should be bigger closer to pot, when he minraises you it's a very tricky spot and if he has the 9 he's probably making a mistake as he's broadcasting it to you. You make a decent reraise to find out where you are, but once he shoves you probably have to fold as there is a very low chance he does this with 7x or other PP.

    3bet/folding flop is bad.


    its pretty dry board so id just flat the minraise stack off on every turn card so he can bluff one more time

    dont 3 bet the flop, the board is happy days for KK in a 3 bet pot....flat his raise and as said above stack off any turn.

    3 betting this flop you are only getting worse hands to fold (worse pp/funky sd/bluffs) and usually only getting called by better hence why flatting his raise is best to keep in the hands we beat

    bit naff being oop on turn but check/shove is prob best line

    wow my first post-thread thingymabob and i got multiple replies. cheers guys really appreciated,


    soz if this sounds a little silly but what exactly does "stack of the turn" mean ,im fairly new to poker and trying to look back and analyse hands etc for the first time .tbh i dont think im up to scratch on mi poker jargon really

    now this hand really got to me and its dented my confidence in  my playing for the time being ive not played a hand since this one. not sure how to just move on, its like i now feel im just gunna get put in one of these set ups again and lose my stack .any advice???

    stack off, means get your stack in. ie get all your chippies in.


    The best advice is to realise THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN



    AND AGAIN




    AND LOADS MORE TIMES.


    If you want to play poker accept that the best hand loses, and that even when you love your hand you wont neccessarily have the best hand. Keep posting and trying to get better. Gl at the tables.
