Hi guys !
I just received my bankroll on partypoker. I used to play on full tilt, but couldn't create another account to get the bonus... I played a few sngs, and won most of them. Partypoker is kind of strange though, 3 hands in a row : kings, aces, and queens ! How is it possible ? Anyway I tried a cash game, and I would like to know if I played this hand well.

I would raise a little more preflop, 60-70 cents or sometimes I might just call and try to hit a set if I'm playing bad players. Usually you don't want to raise and then play a multi way pot with jacks, such a high chance an over card hits.

At this low limit cash-games there are so many donks. In this situation they call ur raise with 3Ts and 78s. You can expect this kind of play in these limits, with JJ you dont want with 3 players in the hand so imo raise littl more to get heads up. (donks wud problably call you anyway )
The way you played it preflop is not bad but simply not working on low limit cash cos donks call with crap (not that 78s is crap).
Rule nr1: Allways buyinn with full cash, in this case $10, also in this case with $10 you wud problably lost more money lol
These low cashdonktable are very hard to play imo the best way to beat this is wait for premium hands and play super agressiv, in this case ur bet on the flop was too weak, problably ur chips go in anyway so why not bet more?

You can play cashgames no problem but NL10 is too high for ur BR i think (you got $25 right?) You need to play NL2 or NL4 but i am not sure party has these....
Imo a save way is to play sng low stakes ($1 ones), they are extremely fishy, just play tight and if dealt a monster play it agressiv. I am not sure party offers ''Double Or Nothing'' SNG cos these are real BR builders

Party has NL4 (full ring) but no low stakes SnGs. So it is full ring cashgame there.

Posted by Webs367: Yea they do have NL4, and double or nothing starts at $6 I think I'm gonna start playing $1 SNG as you said
Party offers ''Double Or Nothing''? Ahhh didnt know that What i remember is that the fee at lower sng are extremely high (some are 20% if i am correct.)

Maybe I'm tired or this fantastic sunny day makes me too stupid to understand but who won the hand ? Did you tell it ? Anyway I would have raised more preflop and then allin
