Nice post vers.

Loxxi from a couple of your post there's something you need to be doing preflop that I don't think you are.

When sizing a preflop raise, you need to be thinking what your stack will be after the raise - what the effective stacks (depending who calls) and what the pot will be if you're called. If it's going to put you in a tough spot on the flop, such as this and your KQo post, you should be pushing preflop if you are really wanting to raise.

I'd only make raises like this with hands I want action against and I'm going to put all the chips in on any flop - like AA/KK. I mix in pushing AA/KK if I have history with the players at the table.

Thanks B, I normally do but this time I wanted to play it like AA and hopefully get him to fold. This was bad decision and I will just push next time. I'm learning.
