Why did you raise so much preflop in the second hand?

Ummm because it was a typo?

I still think you raised too much. I usually go with 4bb + 1bb per limper, or about the size of the pot. I still think the preflop raise here is too big.

leveled? wtf, he was trying to raise 35, are you serious?

[/ QUOTE ]

Seriously, take a look at the OP. It quite clearly states that he raised to 355, thats THREE HUNDRED AND FIFY FIVE dollars preflop. This represents 35 big blinds! My argument is that this is far too big, even for a loose table, and he should have raised much much LESS preflop. I mean he got stacked here so gg with the 355 raise there, take my advice next time I think.

BOOM

how can you argue with that logic

Wow, OP, I don't know if you're ready for 1000nl if you raise AQo to 35 BBs. I would take a long hard look at your pf strategies if I were you.

LOL you IDIOT he still got called by 77 and therefore he didn't raise enough. I normally raise to 80 or so BB with a hand like AQ or KQ so I can fold out all the middle pairs and take down the pot. With a hand so strong like AA and AK, I normally just check call it down all streets so I don't lose any customers.
