I only play limit but I'm trying to learn the no limit game. here's a hand i got beat down on in limit, and i'm trying to figure out, had this been a no limit game, how i'd keep from losing my entire stack.
I was the big blind with QJo. Flop came QJ9 rainbow. I bet out, get called down to the river where I get checkraised. The turn and river were low rags with no flush possible. Obviously dude flopped king high straight. I pay him off for the extra bet on the river.
Now had this been a no limit hand, he probably would have limped in in late position with the K10.
How could I have avoided disaster had this been a no limit hand? Or are there times when you just get destroyed and its inevitable?
It would have been REAL hard to lay down top 2 figuring he flopped a set or straight.
Ps I would appreciate some realism in your responses, I know when giving hypothetical poker advice, everyone's an expert, and it's "so easy to see your opponents cards". I'm heading to vegas this weekend, probably won't play no-limit, but I am just curious as to how a good no limit player could avoid disaster in a hand such as this.
