30/60 No-Limit Hold'em (9 Players)
Hand recorder used for this poker hand: PokerStrategy.com Elephant 0.87.1381.2210 by www.pokerstrategy.com

Preflop: Hero is UTG3 with Q :spade:, Q :club:
UTG2 folds,
Hero raises 180 to 240, MP1 folds, MP2 calls, MP3 calls, 4 fold

Flop: (810) T :diamond:, 9 :spade:, 6 :club: (3 Players)
Hero bets 180,
MP2 raises 495 to 675, MP3 folds,
Hero raises 1335 to 2010 (All In), MP2 calls

Turn: (4830) T :heart: (2 Players)

River: (4830) J :diamond: (2 Players)

Final Pot: 4830

Results follow (Highlight to see):
Hero shows two pairs, queens and tens (Qs, Qc) --> (Qs, Qc, Td, Th, Jd)
MP2 shows two pairs, aces and tens (Ah, Ac) --> (Ah, Ac, Td, Th, Jd)

MP2 wins 4830 with two pairs, aces and tens (Ah, Ac) --> (Ah, Ac, Td, Th, Jd)

What should I have done in this situation? Also this lose really upset me, because nearly every single time a weaker hand is played against me, they get lucky and get the card that they need on turn or the river. But since iIwant to learn how to play properly not just depend on my luck I'd like to know what would much more experienced players than I do in this situation.

bet more on flop like 500 vs 2 players u dont want them to draw cheap, and call a shove u cant ever fold QQ with ur stack on that flop (nether u can do that preflop if some1 reraise u, u got to go all in too)

btw what buy in is this?

That was Facebook Fan Sunday Regular with 11$ buy-in, I surely tried my luck to get into montly million game, since I really can't afford to play in such tournaments with my BR .

+1 Bet/Call All In.. and Bet more on the Flop - people could have called your raise with 8/9suited etc.. and you don't wanna let them hit their OESDs for a measly 180 giving them 4/1 on a call..

The only good thing about your bet size, is it could induce hands such as K10 to raise because it looks so weak - however, I can't see these hands folding to a 2/3pot bet anyway..so yeah, bet bigger and get the chips in

standard cooler with the QQ v AA

you should really not be playing in an $11 MTT if your using your $50 starting Capital, Grind it up from the $1 MTTs dude :)

I know I shouldn't, but for some reason I did :/. I'm playing from 25$ starting capital on PartyPoker, haven't decided if I should send a photo of my id, to PokerStrategy to receive the 50$ starting capital, have some trust issues with such things .

well as you can see i've been a member for like 2/3 years and they it's definitely a trust worthy site, its up to you whether or not you send your ID but I don't see why not - at the end of the day its $50 and lots of Education e.g. Bronze/Silver/Gold Articles etc..
