Hrm...

Preflop, i would have re-raised, and then on the flop, I would have raised again with TPTK. Of course, this means I would have known to fold to the K, and any other callers had me beat so I would have folded anything else... which basically means that I would have only managed to LOSE more money

WOW! Big pot for 3/6...28 Big Bets.

I was once in a hand at Rama, HUGE pot for 2/5 limit game. WATCH IT HERE.

You need to be more aggressive with those cards. I don't like calls preflop and on the flop. You have ammo, so fire with it!!!!!

However, the dude with Cowboys wasn't going anywhere, so chalk it up to bad luck.

compuease

I probably would have played it exactly as you did.. lol... A,Q is still an unmade hand so reluctant to build a pot for someone else, like the guy with cowboys... Not much you could do with this, lucky the K came on the turn, or you would have lost more... Just one of those things.... Keep playing the percentages and good things happen..... 35 years of poker have tought me that...

Ya I should have raised on preflop. At the very least it would have been 2 bets back to McBrag and he might have folded.
