2 HU $2 + .20 End 2nd 20 hands

Mixed play on my part. Last hand bad choice to go all-in.

Hand 20. I'm BB w/Jh 10s, 920 chips. SB opens w/raise to 40 & I call. Flop Qh 8d Qc. I decide to bet the pot to see if he might have a Q. SB calls. He didn't go away but I'm still not sure if he has a Q. In previous hands he's made large re-raises which is what I expected here if he'd hit the Q. Turn 10d. I pair my 10 and this time I bet almost half the pot - 110. SB raises me to 220 and I call. The best I can hope for is a straight. River 6d. I check. SB bets 680 which if I call would put me all-in. I decide "oh to heck with it" and call to see if he actually has me beat and expect to see a Q. Well he didn't disappoint. He had Qd 8c. Had flopped a FH on the flop. :-/ I was dead at that point and he had slow played it.

Now, overall, based on how he had been playing earlier, if not my cards, odds were he had something to continue when I bet and later when he raised my bet but I choose to ignore those signs and in the end came up on the losing side.
