Posted by shokaku: With two Q's on the board it was unlikely that you have another Q, so he thought his jacks are still good. Loose play, easy stackoff.
Agree, and I guess he felt committed to the pot and thought you were committed as well

blinds are 2�. I raise 20�. One player raises to 40�. Others fold, I call.
Blinds 2 and you raise 20? Most of time people raise high the cards they are not 100% sure like AK... and your AQ ass well. So he was thinking you have some AK maybe. wb/wa

Ouch! thats just poor luck! But i tell you... thats why i just love playing pocket pairs Ofcourse i wouldnt call a massive raise with 22 but id call with the JJ your op did. But might have layed it down with your all in! You did the right thing in my eyes Just unlucky. I agree with ZmxPowah he prob put you on AK.

More thoughts. He could thought I had A7 suited. But I dont call that big raise with suited ace pre flop. And when hit two pairs, I go all in he would had higher two pairs...
Or that I had example 10 10, that makes sense to call pre-flop 40€ raise. And then try to bluff the pot away.
The real problem is I didnt have enough chips, if I had 300€ and raise that all in, he would most likely fold. But now as he had already 40€ in pot, and he could win 260€ if he pays only 90€ more. hard to fold then.

I have to go with this: - raising 10bbs with AQ preflop is madness - calling a 40bb reraise with AQ is beyond madness - flop play is alright I guess, but the hand was doomed from the start.
