This whole hand makes me sad
Facing a 4x BB raise and a cold call PF you can't reraise surely with only AQo (lets not forget - its a drawing hand) call and take a flop i think or perhaps smaller reraise if you take into account you're playing a $1 tourn and ppl could be raising with trash like Q7 or something.. I guess you would have lost most if not all of your money on the flop anyway depending on how it played out lol

This is exactly the flop he was looking for: Q-blank-blank and the pot is bigger than scrabble's stack anyway so it would be a ridiculous lay-down.

When you bet the farm on nothing more than a pair (and a decent kicker), tell the wife to keep the boxes packed. You'll be moving frequently.
You say you play tight aggressive, but switch it up. Loose aggressive (as I think this was) easily turns into lose aggressive. Better luck next time.

Q7 is the computer hand. These 2 cards will hit the flop more times than any other. Acording to a computer anyway, hense the name.
Dont you just love poker.

donks are everywhere man...his call terrible but your raise also suspicious .. underestimate your hands strenght this kind a situations... top pair top kicker is not enough to go all-in on the flop...if i were you i checked to him and if he bets i folded it cause his call is so suspicious..he could have QQ or something .. still not enough info whats his stack his style your table image etc..

No, it wouldn't. If bad beats make you furious, then that's something you really should work on.

When all starts going west you gotta get back to plan A. I just went through a pretty iffy spell of late but reading a couple of interesting articles snapped me out of it and put me back on the track.
yes i think 99.999999% of this thread was tilt...but mainly because im trying to build a descent bankroll with a small bankroll.
anyways all this really is ...is me learning from my mistakes and learning from other peoples thoughts and opinions.

Well, if you ever read posts, every single bad beat thread where the person posting it is some-what wrong, he always says "well I knew I was ahead pre-flop"
You can go look at a ton of them, they all have it at some point

Wrong button does happen. I was playing multi-table and raised with like Q2os, 2 people called and I did a c-bet and they folded so I ended up gaining a lot of chips.

That just went through my mind as well. I've done that before, several times. Especially when it's a cheap game and I'm maybe not paying close attention. If it was as accident and he did just get lucky, he wouldn't say because then it may give him the advantage of everone else thinking he's extremely loose.
I've also had the situation where I feel I should be doing something else (instead of the cheap tourney), and played a couple of ery bad hands in hopes to actually lose... then I catch them. People on the table are pissed at my play, and ask why I did 'that'. But, since I'm up I decide to keep playing.
All sorts of reason he may have called porely on purpose, many reasons it may have been an accident. This is just one of those hands you have to kick your dog and move on. notice: please don't kick your dog

I think everyone agrees that you played it wrong AND got unlucky.
He's a donk. No one is disputing that. No one will ever be able to help him, but if you listen to what's been said in this thread it will help you.

well it wasnt an SNG it was a tournament and if you read the other posts i did have a reason for raising....first i read that i was ahead preflop....which i was....and i also didnt want rag hands in there like Q 7....i dont expect him to have a plan what i mean is why did he call that much of a raise out of pos. to me with such a bad starting hand....ecspecially when there was a raise then reraise preflop...i dont understand why everyone here thinks that i did everything wrong here......hardly any of you would have layed it down hitting top pair with top kicker....does anyone think i did this right and just got unlucky????

So you have no idea why you raised, yet you expect the other guy to have a plan in a $1.10 sng?

What range do you put him on when he calls your raise preflop? I make it a rule to not go broke with only top pair. He might play this the same with AA, KK, or QQ. Depending on how aggressive/dumb he is, he might call with 77 or even 44. Your top pair hand is WAY behind all of these plausible holdings.
I'm not saying I wouldn't be aggressive after the flop with this hand but reraising 28 times the BB preflop is way too much. Nothing wrong with calling the 120 and seeing a flop (I might fold preflop if I wasn't suited, AQ with a raise and call in front of me doesn't seem that strong). The point is without so much invested you could have got away from it when he reraised on the flop or at least got to the river cheaper and not lost all your chips.

how is this raise bad obviously i knew that i was ahead.....i mean i made this rasie so hands like that werent in it....but really with a hand like his i wanted him to call he just got lucky
even if i would have reraised a little bit and not as much the Q hit i would have bet i am an agressor

I gather this is from the dealer messages and not a hand history. Are you getting the hand histories downloaded to your computer? They make it easier to see.
