I think I overplayed it but I didnt see it coming! That bet at the river was risky but I wanted them out since the flop!!

Sorry for the format but it is bodog.

Comments....

I forgot to say that I am boli in BODOG,.

Thats not readable for the avg human. Please just post the hand...by hand..instead of that garbeldyguke.

AMEN Ice... I thought I was having an acid flashback to my caculus final... When I can't convert the hand, I just type out what happend here... Try that... you can put in the s in yourself...

OK. Sorry.

I was dealt Ks, Qc in MP2. Two callers to me and I raise 5xxBB = 1.25, , the button and SB, BB called . the pot was 5.05.

Flop 3s 5h Qd

Checked to me and I bet 3.5, button SB called.

Turn 8c

I bet 10. Bottion folds, SB calls.

River 8d

SB checks!!!!! I went all in! and he called!

The result he showed AA and won the pot. Rewriting this hand I see that I just overplay my TPGK, but I thought he was drawing, and he told me a few minutes earlier that he would love to have my patience because I had a long while without seeing a flop. He was suposed to fold his ACES (as if it was so easy).... OK I just overplayed it...

Good to see someone else making poor river bets. In hindsight it always looks stupid but at the time.....
Wish I could say that I will learn from your mistake but having done this several times myself lately I doubt it.
Thanks for the post. If nothing else it will make me think before making the poor river bet (or should I say "not making the river bet")

I don't think this is an awful hand at all. Raising KQo in MP isn't the BEST idea in the world, but in the long run it makes little difference at all. That's a great flop for your hand after a raise as well. What is your opponent calling you with though? How can he be drawing? Rainbow board, low straight...doesn't add up. You have to consider that he has some kind of queen or a real monster. If your opponent is really bad and a calling station, which appears to be the case, I really like a small value bet on the river as a WORSE Q or even two pair will call. You are only beat by AQ, 55, 33, AA and KK...most of which he didn't play at all like those hands. Therefore, I don't think a value bet is that awful, but you need to consider folding to a reraise...depending on your stack size?

The problems with this hand are rooted in your having NO read, or at least giving up no read, of your opponent. If he is a complete loon, I don't think this bet on the end is so awful as he is likely calling with a worse hand regardless. Regardless, your bet should have been smaller. Also, I agree with Ice and others that if you really believed this opponent to be drawing, you should have checked and called a bet. Snapping off the bluff is a helluva lot more profitable than putting in your money as the loser. However, if this opponent is solid and has been watching you, you really need to consider why he is calling you. Does he know that you're aggressive and will bet all the way for him? IS he drawing?

Not an awful play overall (but certainly not a good one), but there are some glaring errors related to hand reading, value betting and knowing your opponents...this is recoverable and I think those are areas of your game you should look closely at.

Alex... I've been playing a lot of NL$50 trying to clear a bunch of bonuses... And, honestly, if you're a winning player at $25NL, you should do fine at $50NL... The players don't push as much, but they still play like crap a LOT of the time (ie... they'll call a river allin holding 79 w/ a 345610 board when there's also 4 to a flush on the board and they don't have one of those flush cards..)...
