Cheers chris...I had big problems with KK and AA yesterday - think I lost 3 times with them simply by attempting to draw people into a big pot and getting stung by trips or 2 pair.
I reckon you're probably right too - an immediate all in might be the best way to go in these games, particularly since at such levels like you say people are often unable to put down some biggish hands.
FatBlunt really did what I was doing yesterday...not enough pre-flop with his QQ. He was wanting a caller like J 9 with a J on the flop, but didn't do enough to shift me out, and as often happens it was a case of win a small pot(with a big pre-flop raise) or run the risk of losing a big one.
That was his error, and itsurmny's was the final call...he surely had to assume that with two big all ins he was at best behind to trips or 2 pair, and at worst being outkicked by another pair of jacks.
As for any of my mistakes...my hand was big enough for it not to matter
