NL10 Probably a standard question

[Fishonaquest]

Hey,

this is the first hand I post, so please be gentle.

Villian is 35/23/2.25 over 139 hands. (I didn't know that at the time the hand was played)

I think I loose a lot of money playing big pots with mediocre hands, thats why I only break even playing Poker.


Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.05/$0.10 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

SB: $14.75
BB: $5.90
UTG: $10.35
MP: $6.95
CO: $9.90
Hero (BTN): $13.50

Preflop: Hero is dealt Q K (6 Players)
3 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $0.40</font>, SB calls $0.35, BB folds
Uncalled bet of $0.00 returned to Hero

Flop: ($0.90) 9 K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">SB bets $0.50</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $1.50</font>, <font color="red">SB raises all-in to $14.35</font>, Hero folds

Pot Size: $16.75 ($0.15 Rake)

Results in white:

I think just waiting for a better spot is the right thing to do. Sorry for wasting your time, but this is one of those hands where I think I should call (and probably do that too often)

Hey a first hand post that includes stats and is converted, you're ahead of the curve! I usually raise to $2 on the flop, but everything else is standard.

[skoal2k4]

I think you played the hand fine, especially against an unknown. Just take note of how he played and play your other hands against him accordingly.

[Spurious]

Pretty standard play.

As skoal said, make a note of his play and exploit it next time.

One thing:
Leave out the results, because it influences the poster's.

[Fishonaquest]

Thanks everyone. Should I post the results afterwards or just leave them out at all?

[skoal2k4]

leave them out as they have no effect on what actions should be taken during play

[BevillTheDevil]

looks standard to me

[Zilarik]

Based on the results though I'd say it's time for a new deck.

[monkover]

standard and good to see the hand is converted [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Haha...just saw that, my bad! I rembered it wrong...maybe it was 89s of spades.
