[QUOTE="fx20736, post: 1604858, member: 71445"] There's nothing wrong with you, you just need to evolve a little as a Poker player. I just came from there. Do you play FR or 6max? If you are a tight player who can patiently wait for good situations play Full Ring. Next How much are you raising preflop with these hands? If you are in a loose game then rasing 3xBB is not nearly enough. Raise more. If you are Out of postion and you raise 5/6 Xbb and everyone folds guess what? You collected the blinds and you didn't have to play out of position. When someone raised in front of you re-raise AA KK QQ and not just 2xraise, make it 4x their bet.The only exception to this is with QQ, If there is a raise and a reraise before the action gets to you your Queens are likely no good. AA KK QQ are not the same. AA, get all the money in. Raise and re-raise. Hammer the flop and keep hammering until you meet aggression. Here's my secret. Since I win 92% of the time with AA, I'll allow myself to get stacked once in awhile. Sometimes you'll be surprised and find out your opponent grossly overplayed a smaller overpair. Other times they flopped a set or two pair. Big deal, it happens, move on. KK, almost exactly like AA. Try to get it all in preflop. Once in a while you will run into AA or AK that flops TP, again over time KK is a huge money winner. The difference with KK is 1 out of 6 times on average an Ace will flop. If your opponent psushes back then you need to think abouut laying down. Soemtimes they will be bluffing but they won't be enough to make your pf raise and cbet pay off for getting stacked. Be smart, lay KK down to the A. Otherwise relax and allow yourself to occasionally get stacked with KK against a set. It happened to me twice in 10 minutes this morning. I still do really well with KK. QQ. Against tight opponents (VPIP/ PFR under 14 or so) or a 3bet under 5% you should generally lay down to a 3bet with QQ. After the flop you need to re-evaluate if an A or K hits the flop, see above about bluffing. Otherwise raise here. If your cbet gets called and you get raised on the turn, muck your hand. QQ is a decent overpair hand but unless you are agaisnt a total fish or whack job QQ should not build a huge pot unless you hit your set. Sometimes your opponent will check down to the river and show that he has JJ or TT. JJ. you didn't mention but JJ is like QQ but worse. Fold to almost any3bet and on the flop you will see an over more often than not, so proceed with caution. Really with JJ you are trying to showdown cheaply or hit a set especially as lots of players love to overplay AJ KJ QJ JT. There you go. Raise bigger, re-raise bigger, get the money in with AA & KK, don't worry about getting stacked. Use a fair amount of caution with QQ and even more with JJ. Go have fun now. [/QUOTE]
