River: (t7285) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 players)

Thoughts? I feel I'm pretty damn pot committed on the turn. I had no thoughts that this guy was making a move, and put him on a big Jack (AJ) and thought I could also be up against 2 diamnonds, possible against the nut flush draw. I felt like I had to call the push on the turn though since an oesd + flush draw should be favorite unless he had the higher flush draw, and if he had a hand like AJ, at the most he only had the Ace of diamonds. I wasn't anticipating a reraise to put me all in. Other than I suck at poker, any thoughts?

PS, I realize that pushing this preflop would have been a horrible mistake--I was hoping to steal, then got caught, then got braindead.

I'm confused. There wasn't a push on the turn, and you didn't push preflop...

As for the hand you posted, shove after the all-in, you've got plenty of outs.

SOrry, meant flop, not turn, and don't know how to edit. As for shoving on the flop, that's been haunting me for days now... dunno why I didn't. I think it was shove or fold, and I hate to fold when I think I'm the favorite, especially when I could make ITM by eliminating the shortie. I think it could have protected my hand, as I don't want the SB in with me. I play a fair amount of SNGs, and even cash, but I can tell you that I'm not faced with OESD + FL draws all that often.
Also, in my second comment, I did not mean that I pushed preflop--I raised to 600, mostly cause I could get away from a push by the SB, who had me covered. I just meant that preflop, pushing QTs with &gt; 10x BB stack was -EV.
