    Default Newb question

    I'm a newb and have a strategy question. I'll try to remember thing correctly.

    PIron: 1000 in chips <- Me
    Biggelow: 2500 in chips

    Preflop:

    I raise 100 and a few people call

    Flop:

    Biggelow checks, I raise 100 and he calls

    Turn:

    Biggelow checks, I go all in and he calls

    River:


    So I loose... He had a king and queen allready. How did I do besides loosing?

    Well you need to bet more on the flop, 3/4 to full pot size. Pushing on the turn when a king shows up is a bad idea.

    Post what the blinds were.

    blinds??????? what were the blinds???

    preflop you make it a 100 and "few ppl call" means pot on flop = 300+, you severly underbet this pot on the flop.

    jack it up to 300-600-all in. bet more on flop!

    now on turn your too late!

    poorly played.

    So you min raised PF, and min bet on the flop?....play your jacks harder here...
    Anyways im probably pushing this hand PF, you only have 10bb left, if you raise 3bb and get called and miss you are left with not much and probably will have to push a worse hand later, why not pick up some blinds here

    As said before, bet alot more on the flop, while jacks are probably the best hand here, we dont want to give odds for 2 overs to call.

    Dont put all your money in on the turn when an over hits, what is he calling an all in with on this board?

    blinds = 100??

    1 play to make:

    all in preflop end of story.

    the KQ will prolly call and you bust anyway.
