    I don't understand the shove. At all. What the hell are you scared of on that board?

    That said, you got it in as a 90% favorite. Would you be posting this if he doesn't river a 2?

    Stop being so results-oriented. You made a play where you got your money in good. That is all you can do.

    This forum is for hand advice, not for bad beats. If you think you did something wrong then you should really take a step back and read a few poker books or maybe just browse through strategy archives as your thought process needs some adjusting. In poker you can't win everytime and all you can do is make the best decisions possible along the way.

    A few things you could have done differently is...

    Pre: There are 5 limpers. My usual raise pre antes is 3x. So I am taking on those 5 limpers with my raise. So I am doing 3x + # of limpers. So 8x...I would raising 8x...and since I am in the BB I might throw some mustard on it and make it 10x.

    That would weed out ppl with that ace rag shit and only bring the big hands to play. Then on any flop I would be c-betting about 2/3 the pot.
