Default What to do?

Well I'm kinda stuck in a pickle in this situation. From what I can see, I probably made the wrong decision to call once the guy behind me raised. What do all of you think? I put that bet out there since it was after the flop so it was the small bet just to see where people were at. When I got raised I should've folded correct? Just checking with you all.

it was always gonna be the kicker or the river that beat you with this hand - i was half expecting someone to show two pair at the end

Quite funny that spongebob had the exact same hand as you - sods law

by the way, for future reference, if you put a semi colon before the cards then card images will be displayed

ie put : before Qs to give

Too bad your pockets were suited otherwise you wouldn't even be in the hand!

That darn odds thing and calling SB when you have 2 suited cards. I find I am throwing away my money most of the time calling with any 2 suited cards in that position. I usually have to fold on the flop anyway.

Being the mostly conservative player if I had a read on Notty of big cards I might have folded to that first bet. No read and I might call there. But then again I don't play that limit. Seems like that hands showed people like Spongebob and Make will play almost anything.

So, you can never be quite sure if you had the best hand. You would definitely need to have a good read to deal with the crazyness at that table.

Just so no one is confused, you put a colon : instead of a semicolon ;. I frankly never knew this and I just tested it out. Fonz's example is the right way to do it.

additionally :

to get the 10 card use the number 10 and not T or ten so : 10h would give
the full list can be found here

(p.s. didnt realise i had my colons mixed up there!)
