Yes. I risked my stack OOP against a dominated hand. Worth a check up. If I made mistakes in this hand they were big mistakes.
By some quirk of nature I survived and profited but I should have lost of bunch of cake on this hand.

standard amount bro raise to 50 just about every time if they are sticky raise to 60 grabbing 15BB's pre flop is a huge win that's more than an hours worth of work
If you crawled in my head PF that's exactly what you heard.

can we have some tough questions in this forum please?
No need for potshots. I think it generated some interesting discussion and certainly helped me think things through.

oh wow 8 high flop..lol, def bet some amount and don't fold to aggression go broke on this flop if you have to it's a frickin button raise ffs
This is part of why I wanted to explore this hand, too. Aren't these lines about the same as saying push it all in pre-flop? That one hasn't worked out so well for me in the past.
As for the button raise, wide range thing, I agree to disagree with the crowd a little on that one. I put him on a much smaller range after he calls the re-raise. Obviously opponent specific but I felt strongly this guy would be dropping almost anything.
I didn't realize he was weak enough he wouldn't push back with the queens. Noted for the future...

my god looks like you guys are showing down too much i like it when i rarely show a hand...try doing the same line with QJ suited or something then you get paid off a lot when you actually show up with a good overpair
I'm guessing he open folded to encourage me to flip my aces and make him feel good. I didn't oblige, I mucked unseen.
Or did you mean something else?
