OK. I had the 2 buyins I lost yesterday and now I am breaking even for the day. The swings have been crazy!!

It is OK to lose my stack here, right? I had no reads of him. I had only been in the table for about ten hands and he is playing vanilla...

In short, yes. You're behind to QQ or 9T, considering the no re-raise preflop the only hand he can likely hold that you're losing to is 9T and if he's got it, you still have outs to win, but most of the time he won't even have that much.

I lose my stack here 100% of the time, when he comes back over the top of you the stacks are just to short for you to even consider getting away from it. Even with deeper stacks I don't think you can easily get away from this hand.

If he called your raise with 910 than so be it, you still have 10 outs after you push all in or if he smooth called your raise with QQ and flopped a bigger set, than you have to pay him off. If you are going to fold 2nd set in this situation, then you are playing to weak tight.

He could also be drawing a flush but the guy wasnt that aggressive. When I saw that last diamond I thought that there were a few more hands that could beat me but I thought it was EV+ to call. I put him earlier at QQ, KK.

He showed me the QQ, and stacked me. No problem that should happen from time to time. I also thought that giving up there was way too weak tight. The thing is when he went all in after thinking a lot, I knew he was on QQ. I am still on the losing streak. It s been two days now....
