2 HU $5 + .50 End 2 11 hands

Short & sweet and I was on the wrong side of the final hand. I started playing reasonably aggressive 3 BB bet when I'm the SB and raising when I've hit something after the flop. That seemed to be working OK the 1st couple of hands when he started hitting back with raises and I wasn't sure if he really had something or not. I folded but in the last hand I decided to call and find out.

Hand 3. After hands where I've been raising modestly and winning, I'm BB and have Qs 6h. He limps and I call. Flop 4h 6s 2d. I have middle pair. I bet 20 into the 40 pot and he raises to 100. I have no idea what he has and fold.

Hand 7. I'm BB w/1630 chips and 7d 5c. He limps and I raise to 40, he calls. Flop 8c 2h 7c. I have middle pair and bet 20 into the 80 pot, he raises to 40 and I call. Turn 3d. I check and he bets 160. Not sure what was different about the turn card but I fold.

Hand 8. I'm the BT w/1550 chips and have Kc 2h. I bet 50 and he raises to 150, I fold.

Hand 9. We are back to even. I have Ad 10d and am the BB. He limps 20 and I raise to 60. He reraises to 180 and I reraise to 300, he calls. Flop 3h 4s 8d. I bet 150 into the 600 pot and he goes all-in w/1200. Grrr. Did he hit a set? Anyway I fold.

Hand 11. I'm BB w/1070 and have Qh 3h. He limps w/20 and I call. Flop 3d 2h 6c, I have middle pair. I bet 20 and he raises to 100, I reraise to 180 and he goes all-in and I decide to call. He shows 2d 3c, has two pair. Turn Jd, River 8d and I'm done. :-/ I really shouldn't have called his all-in, and I guess I was a bit on tilt from his aggression and "not going to take it anymore!!" Not a good way to play.
