Default What happened here???

Well I'm really not sure what to make of this one at all. Did I play it badly or did he? This was the very 1st hand of a $5 SNG.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (9 handed) converter

Button (t1500)
SB (t1500)
jiffman (t1500)
UTG (t1500)
UTG+1 (t1500)
MP1 (t1500)
MP2 (t1500)
MP3 (t1500)
CO (t1500)

Preflop: jiffman is BB with , .
3 folds, MP2 calls t20, MP3 calls t20, 1 fold, Button calls t20, SB completes, jiffman checks.

Flop: (t100) , , (5 players)
SB checks, jiffman bets t100, MP2 calls t100, MP3 folds, Button folds, SB folds.

Turn: (t300) (2 players)
jiffman bets t300, MP2 calls t300.

River: (t900) (2 players)
jiffman checks, MP2 bets t100, jiffman raises to t400, MP2 calls t300.

Final Pot: t1700

Results in white below:
jiffman has Th Tc (full house, fives full of tens).
MP2 has Qs Qh (full house, fives full of queens).
Outcome: MP2 wins t1700.


Well it's stumped me, this one!! Who played badly here? I don't like his play in places, especially not raising pre-flop.

And obviously my play is not great...but cos he never raised, at no point did I really think he had a better hand. I checked the river to try and get some info....his small bet made me suspicious, I thought about flat calling, but I took it to be weakness cos that was all he'd really shown through the hand. I put him on medium pockets...7s 8s or 9s maybe.

I think a better player would have stacked me here, so who played worse, me or him?!
