Could be worse, you could suck as bad as UTG in hand 2.

To do that I would have to start running at 80/10/1, he was really bad.

I had a very strong suspicion that BB had KK, but given the action I had to call

you are terrible dude

I agree, I do suck. However, you would honestly fold QQ in that spot? Remember, I knew for sure that UTG did not have me beat and had to call his all in before I could see BB's action. If BB would have open pushed I would have folded.

awful reasoning, so because there is a donk in the pot you "had to call" even though you thought you were beat??

well played gg etc

I don't know, I'm not 100% sure I am a winning player yet, I thought I was starting to get there but this latest downswing has be wondering. I only started trying to seriously learn NL over the summer and haven't really played that many hands. Maybe only 100,000 since I was busy with law school during the fall, and of those 100,000 I have only won consistently over the last 40,000 or so.

This really wasn't meant to be a strategy post but since you bring it up.... I had a gut feeling BB had KK. Often my gut feelings turn out to be spot on, sometimes to the point where I wonder if there is some form of clairvoyance in this world. However, part of the reason I think I suck is that I haven't learned to completely trust it. Therefore, my gut feeling aside, BB could have had ANYTHING in that spot. He was a solid player who 3bet light and often, and his lead on the flop looked like a standard c-bet. If I had folded to UTG's push and BB quickly folded behind me, folding would have been a HUGE mistake.

I LOVE playing at tables with guys that fold middle sets.

This is nl 200 on stars. I wouldn't have been shocked to see one guy with K-j and another with AK. If you have a read its definitely possible and proabably advisable to fold the QQ in this spot, but certainly not terrible to call either. Even with some good players at these levels you could see AA and AK or KQ.

Move up again.

idunno if its just obvious, or no one felt it necessary to say but...
