    Firstly; the clinic shouldn't be used to complain about our opponents' play. They pay their money and can play however they like. We have to just focus on our own play.

    Secondly; If you're going to raise for more than half of your stack pre-flop, you should really be raising for all of your stack. So think about your own mistakes in the hand.

    The bottom line is that you got it in with the better hand and were outdrawn. That's just how it goes sometimes.

    Yep.Beginnin to realise that now.Like I say,more or less at the bottom rung of the poker ladder in terms of reading the game/opponent etc.Suppose you learn from your mistakes, or so they say.Back to the drawing board then lol.
