hi

that was unlucky but

(probably contraversally) I dont agree with your preflop re-raise all-in with QQ

the blinds are 10/20 he raises by 140 in early position with no callers before him

at this stage in the game you all have very limited information on each other - so I wouldnt rule out a very valid strong hand anymore than not ruling our a loose aggressive player wanting to dominate the table early on

It's worth remembering that he has your chips covered 3-2 so an all-in move by you is going to affect you the most either negatively or positively - he would survive either way

Maybe I can be a scaredy cat sometimes but I would at least be thinking he could have AA or KK or KA - classic over raising hands for some players

to re-raise back all-in (personally) I think is a bad move preflop with QQ

your risking 1000 odd chips

a) to potentially pick up 140 if he folds ... thus wasting a good hand when you could win more

b) potentially losing all of your chips if he calls with KK or AA ... thus going out when you could stay in

GT will give you a Q & M of it all

but I would say the downs of going all-in preflop in this position outweigh the upside

better to have called and then seen the flop and played it from there ... it might not have changed a thing but I think you potentially put you head on the board a bit too early
