Hand 2
Continuing on from other post. Again, cooler. Most interested in bet sizing/though process etxc
Have reloaded and made a bit, up to around £260. But I think its clear to a couple of players I'm a bit steamed.
I raise K's UTG for £6. BB calls.
£15 in pot. BB pretty TAG, he's well known for only playing the nuts.
Qc9h4s. He has about £160 total. He opens for £10, I pop it to £40 very quickly to attempt to reinforce my steamed image. I have a bit of a live tell, being tanking before raising strong (working on it). He shoves on me. I hate it. He easily holds Q9 or a set here. But I just tell myself I cant be that unlucky again, plus the pot pretty much sets me even if won. So I call, and am surprised to see opponent holds Qh10h.
Qc9h4s 2h Kh. Pretty gross again. But turn card really wakes up his hand.
Any argument made for calling the re raise and jamming turn here do you think? Opponent could easily have e crushed on flop here.

Im never raising flop unless Im snapping a shove, unless you have a good read he calls with loads of worse hands and only raises better. lol at him being pretty tag if he shows up with QT here
what are you saying about your tell? not sure what you mean. How can you play a turn when his reraise is all in?
Thing is these three hands I put up I really feel like I played near perfect. Went for maximum value in each spot, getting beat by 0.4%, <20% and 22%. Huge hands played for stacks and just being punished. Hand no.1 likely entering my top 10 all time all in off flop. All within 30minutes also
Just feeling that playing this well and being crushed for last month (mostly) is an omen. I'm on such a downswing I dont feel like I can justify playing for a while. I mean flopping the nuts and generating a call on such a wet board for 200+ BB's and getting outdrawn from less than 1% off flop, what more can you do? Flopping top set with A's and generating the call, river set with K's allin on flop for the loss. If your just going to play well and run so bad whats the point???
