I did. I was doing good. Way better than expected. I was up over 3 buy ins and calling it a night. The last hand came up and I had QQ. I get 3 bet from a solid player. He has a 3 bet of 8 but I knew an AA KK were a good portion of that but only about 50% of his 3 bets. He also had a lot of A high in his stats. I did what any good moron would do and called out of position. Needless to say his KK was good and I lost half my stack to him.
Other than that I ran exceptionally good and ended up over 2 bb's up over 800 hands. I lowered my starting hand range, really payed attention to stats and played position all the time. Besides the last hand. I was greedy. Flush may just drive down here and whop me upside the head, but besides the one hand I played a nearly flawless game.
I made 1 questionable fold with a JJ. It was probably the right play but thought I would ask how you would have played it.

Remember, a solid player with a 3 bet of 8 who has a\some ace high hands in his range will be 3 betting not only in position but also the blinds against a late position raise aka a blind steal. If you had raised with your QQ in the CO or on the button and he 3 bets I am going to either flat him or shove, however if your raise came from early position and he 3 bets then yes I am folding the QQ based on the fact you stated he was a solid player.
As for the JJ hand 3 bet of 18??? and his range includes 33 and J7o? Oh yeah, I am calling or better yet shoving over the top every time and if I lose, I lose and can do so knowing I made the exact right move. But there is an exception and your answer to my next question decides if the exception comes into play. He raised to $1.52. That is a huge 3 bet preflop raise. Was this typical for him? If this large size was not his norm I would fold the JJ because I have seen so many people do the extra large raise with KK. If this was his normal style of 3 betting preflop I would have went all-in.
I didn't see him do it any other time on that table. If I had I would have called in a heartbeat. I'm not sure how he raised the others as it was in a previous game. I had a lack of info.
