Message: [QUOTE="Bombjack, post: 443648, member: 11914"] Welcome to CC! LOL at mini-raises pre-flop! This is NO-LIMIT hold'em. Never minimum raise. You need to thin the field pre-flop so ideally you're up against one opponent, to give your queens the best chance of standing up. Re-raise to about $0.20 pre-flop (because at these limits people call with anything if you bet less). Bet bigger on the flop - a pot-sized bet (including in the pot the bets of your opponents on the flop) i.e. about $0.40, as you're in danger of being out-drawn if someone has a ten for the straight. On the turn you should be fairly comfortable because you have the 2nd nuts (after pocket nines), but you could bet bigger for value. I'd be all-in on the river. If someone has pocket aces or nines, that's bad luck, you should pay them off, but more likely you'll get paid off by someone with a straight or flush. [/QUOTE]
