This, my friends, is solid advice.
Weekend of poker scoreboard:
Saturday, back to back cashes in tournaments.
Sunday, almost to final table, overplayed my KQ suited. Donk!!! Lost exactly $9. in cash game.
Mon. a.m. Moose: early out after a fantastic start. Connecting with a lot of hands, folding small pairs, out when someone could not find a fold for his pocket 5's vs. my AK.
The guy who knocked me out got stupid lucky playing Q/5 against a raise preflop: Here were the players hands:
Button: AA
Big Blind: 22
UTG: Q5 (offsuit as if that matters)
Action: limps (including me with 9/10), raise to 200, call, call, fold
Flop: 2/5/5
Action: check, check, bet 200, call, checkraise to 500, all-in, all-in.
Turn: 3
River: 3
Winner, 5's full of 3's. Sick. 2 players down after 2's got counterfeited on their full house flop.
This is the guy who couldn't find a fold to my preflop 900 raise UTG (blinds @100/200), then could not find a fold on a jack high flop with an all-in for 900 more.

People who pay no attention to the strength of their hand just drive me nuts. I would never play 55 to a raise unless I was all in before the raiser was or I was being blinded out or something. Ridiculous.
The Tao of Poker is a pretty cool book so far. You will be sorry you loaned it to me as I will now be a force to be reckoned with - LOL. Thanks!
