    so basically i was playing 0.15/0.30 about half an hour ago full table stacks were reasonable apart from 1 or 2 there hadnt really been much action during the time i was on the table only every now and then, then this happens basically what i want to know is if i could of done anything else pre flop or even during the flop,turn and river. Nothing happens pre so i pop it up 4x the big blind.

    lol make notes on both and move the earth to make sure you sit at their tables again

    can't believe you got 2 calls pre with a 4x raise by 2 players with raggy queens, I've seen people play rag aces but that's another level haha, that's a christmas present of a table

    Ul on this occasion but you did everything right, just a shame his kicker paired too because I think they'd both stack off with top pair no kicker, beautiful stuff. Easy game.

    not really, if you was aware that they would call maybe a little bit more pre but at this level thats terrible call by the opponents. maybe they called for flush & two pair only but defo make a note, im not getting of it from then either very unlucky.

    PS- Although you have not said a bad word about the others need to get rid of players names mate :o)

    thanks i wasnt really aware that i would get 2 callers as they both weren't really doing much while i was on the table i expected the one call from the shorter stack as he was raising up and calling raises quite often but when i got the 2 callers i was a bit put off but when the flop comes down 2 low cards and a queen i presumed i was good...... ahh sorry about that i will remove the names now
    and thank you for welcoming me hopefully i will learn a lot more and improve my game substantially

    yeah i made notes on both especially the eventual winner of the hand.... i had previous run ins with him on the table while i was there where he called off majority of his stack with top pair lousy kicker but that time i had a full house i mean i would of understood if i min raised i would expect callers but just couldnt understand the call of a 4x bet when he was relatively short stacked but hey i guess thats poker you win some you lose some just hurts that little bit more when you get called with a well below average when you get the hand you have been waiting for all day

    Posted by waynecure
    exactly my thought when the cards went over i expected to see the Q in at least one of their hands something along the lines of QK or even QA due to the quickness in which they were calling my raises and re raises but when i see Q 4 my heart went to my throat the thing that got to me most was the manner of how he reacted when he took the pot by saying to me in the chat box thank you doesnt seem to respect anyone but i guess i will see him more often or at least find him cause now i know the range at what he plays at i can exploit it i guess cause more often he is definitely gonna lose playing those cute looking suited cards.... but thanks for your reply

    that's just very unlucky! You did everything right, in my opinion perfect pre flop raise, perfect re-raise post flop, and perfect move after the turn! you were just unfortunate to come up against two pretty poor players!

    ofcourse he can call he only has a click a button, whether calling is profitable or not is another matter entirely
