Live Beat Down!

I am gonna keep this short but I thought I would post it anyways.

So I was at Casino Niagara playing the 1/2 table and I had lost a fair sized pot early on and I was down to about $45 with everyone else stacked atleast $150++ anyways it was a pretty aggressive table and I wake up in the cutoff with 2 red 10's and 3 limpers behind me and the blinds with large stacks. So I decide I will hope to take it down early I raise to $15 which was what people were betting out so I figured I would keep it the same. I get 2 callers and the flop comes Q 10 2 rainbow with 1 club....Bazinga? You would think so, anyways so I push all in which was roughly the pot and I get the SB calling me and shows KcQc so obviously the turn and river both come clubs and im out!

Its not as short as I thought it would be haha but let me know what I did wrong here or if you want some more details.

  • With that stack, nothing you can do. Poker is a cruel mistress sometimes.

    If you had reloaded, then MAYBE you could have pushed him off top pair with a larger bet, but unlikely. Obviously you want a call there anyhow. You just got horribly unlucky.

    Played poker with 20bb.

    How are you "out" isn't it a cash game?

    I will stop here. With such a small stack, bottom pair is probably calling you in this spot. Players don't respect the small stack.

    You did nothing wrong in the hand. btw, when the bigger stacks call your pre-flop raise, they should be looking at it as a $45 pre-flop raise as they know all your money is going in the middle on almost any flop (not unless you are super tight). You really need chips to play the game properly.
  • push pre...dont raise 1/3 of your stack off
  • Like I said I lost a big pot not to long before this and I was going to go home so did not reload. GTA - when I say "out" it means I am going home :)

    And yes I was pretty much pushing any flop that came out but I thought pushing preflop was a little bit much but I guess maybe the better move and I might have got away with stealing the blinds and limpers, oh well
  • Not much you can do here, other than be happy you didn't reload. I don't know many who would fold villains hand even if you had a couple hundred more....once they hit the flush draw on the turn, would have to be a huge bet to hold that spot.

    Sometimes, you're just destined to go home.

    P.S.: I don't shove pre either, not too often you get called by a worse hand....You most often win the 6 or 7 bucks.....but I'm looking for a double up with that hand and your stack. I raise as you did pre, then jam any decent flop, you can get worse hands to call you that way.
  • Yea pretty much my thoughts T8 and was happy to get that flop! Just sucks that he hit runner runner, I also agree I don't think he was folding in that spot to most people unless I shoved $100+ into that roughly $50 pot. He did apologize to me a couple of times too haha
