    Default OMFG VOMIT


    this hand was just SICK !

    Did i do anything wrong here?

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $2.00 BB (2 handed) - Full Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    BB ($274)
    Hero (SB) ($363)

    Preflop: Hero is SB with 4, 4
    Hero bets $6, BB raises to $22, Hero calls $16

    Flop: ($44) 9, 9, 4 (2 players)
    BB bets $28, Hero calls $28

    Turn: ($100) 10 (2 players)
    BB checks, Hero checks

    River: ($100) 5 (2 players)
    BB bets $66, Hero raises to $135, BB raises to $224 (All-In), Hero calls $89

    Total pot: $548 | Rake: $0.50

    Results:
    Hero had 4, 4 (full house, fours over nines).
    BB had 10, 10 (full house, tens over nines).
    Outcome: BB won $547.50


    I think I played the hand ok...
    Absolutely sick !
    Thing is, no matter how else I played it post flop... The chips were still going in either way...

    Yucky...
    Good thing I got over 30 buy ins at this level.
    And that on another table with him(we were playing 4)...
    I started with 200, as did he.. and i was up to $750 lol.. So still a profit...

    Its HU, and I suck at it and don't have much experience, but I wouldn't have a called that raise. Low pocket pair its a race at best or dominated over pair (which it was) looking for a 2 outer.

    Note: Villian didn't hit the nuts that would be 9s 9c

    It would have been really hard to get away from that hand after the flop, but maybe if you feeler bet the turn. Would you still have shove if he check raised turn?

    prolly wouldn't call pre, you're not that deep and 44 plays considerably different than 88/99.

    flop fine, turn horrendous, river can't really comment since i don't have a range that does this.

    I'd call 33+ pre flop...
    Super loose HU.

    Its working at the moment...
    Villians range was very tight, but he really couldnt get away from TPTK, EVER...

    Not sure why you would fold 44 preflop ? to a small re raise ?

    I'd usualy be re raising with 88+, I'd make it something like $70-85.
    Rarely playing my cards...
