I have posted a bad beat for a while so here goes.
ME - QQ FLOP OF Q 10 A - I HAVE FORCED ALL IN FEELING PRETTY GOOD A SET OF QUEENS LOOKING GOOD, ANYWAY FORCED ALL IN BY A SET OF 10'S, TURN CARD 5, LOOKING GOOD RIVER YOU GUESSED IT A 10!!!!
Question: Am i right to call the all in, and for future reference longterm is it a good call? or was i just unlucky i have my own thought but i would love some input from you guys that have more skill and experience than myself.

almost certainly, although without the table detail can't say for sure
if he has AA then it's gg (but you could always hit quads!)
if a straight then you can still house up
and everything else you are ahead of (set of tens, 2 pairs, straight draws)

KJ has flopped the world & you could be behind to AA....but how oftenn is that ever going to be the case lol? so it's an easy all-in for me. Although you havent mentioned table dynamics or if the board was sooted or not? although I think it may still go all in.
raised so i call flop of 925 so i have a set checks round to me so i raise for value, turn j he raises so i am thinking maybe aj j10 so i shove he calls with 99.
999 over my 555, oh well enjoyed it for an hour or so thought that i did ok. just got to get in the next one took a head so its not all doom and gloom
TeddyBloat012£5.54 thanks for the rail JJ! sorry to keith for the most confusing conversations he's prolly ever had. i was stuggling to juggle tables at the time.
A8<QQ exit for 13bb, dunno if thats standard SB v btn. seemed it when i reshoved lol.
kept a note of some hands tonight if you don't mind looking. point and laugh as appropriate. may not be action hands just looking for advice on what to do in some marginal and frequent spots: and also just posting my worst plays hopefully the embarrassment will stop me making them eventually lol.
1. any reason not to complete? was thinking that i had no real implied odds to go set mining and do i really want to flip for 1/4 stack if dagg shoves? not being results orientated i noted the hand mentally before folding.

3 is there an argument for checking back this flop? considered it at the time, as it is i think betting made my decisions a little easier anyway. does anyone call the river?
Hand 1...yeah, I think we should always be making up here. If Dagg does shove on us then we can just let 33 go and have lost a single BB, no biggie. The big stack has overlimped into the pot so I'd certainly be peeling here. I would sometimes advocate raising here but being OOP and with Dagg's stack lurking behind who could just jam and put us in an awkward spot, I think making up the blind and go hunting for that 3 is the better option.
Hand 2...I don't actually mind this. That minclick back pre is usually pretty strong holdings, so whilst being OOP is far from ideal, we are getting a great price with a pretty playable hand that can flop massive. You could argue raising our draw on that flop, and in this instance we'd probably (almost certainly) take the pot down. But if we believe that the villain is more often than not only going to be holding made premium hands, then they ain't folding JJ on a 9 high board for example. In which case we'll be bloating a pot OOP vs a guy who isn't gonna fold. The runout is pretty unfavourable, and really smacks their range if they were betting 'strong' air on the flop (AK/AQ etc). This might sound silly but I think we could possibly play it a bit more aggro on the flop had a single spade fallen; gives us some potentially good barrelling cards on the turn, and we all love back door equity.
As played, I think it's all gravy. I probably play it very similar, so make of that what you will
Hand 3...I'd say it's a pretty safe fold on the river. Vs some villains, I might call, but I think a random will show you a better hand more often than not.
I thinking betting the flop is fine. Although I might bet a little more (just over 4k perhaps), we don't need to bet huge. We also have that gutshot should we get resistance, but that flop is gonna fold out all PP >88 with a c-bet.
small cash in the main, bit gutted how it finished but learning all the time made a few errors prior to my exit hand chasing bounties, which is not what i had planned to do.

Yes, Thanks trev really happy to give something back.
on a personal level this has been a great year for me in terms on fundraising, i just hope to give as much as i can afford.
in terms of poker i feel i know where my game is at which i am very greatful to everyone that has given me advice, i know i can be a pain always asking people but its only because i want to improve in whatever i do, i have learn't a lot and there is still so much to learn.
Hi all have been away from the tables having a bit of a break. Great to see some nice cashes though. Amazing gesture with the donation haylez. Cancer research is a fantastic charity which is close to mine and many others hearts. Nice one mate. Gl at the tables all Posted by waller02
thanks again, sadly i didnt run deep tonight in the main but i am sure i will get there and when i do i think it would be great to donate the whole of the sum to cancer research, until then i will continue to try improve my game and push on if possible

thks hhy - saves me the effort of typing it
i think i err towards the raise on the flop in h2, which should at least slow the villain down if he has a good but not top hand
that being said i do find myself flatting from time to time as well
