how is it unlucky for you to push all your money in with the worst hand?

Aah, greathuskie is aware of the fact that QQ is the worst hand in this pot. Fine. You always fold pocket queens then, husk??
Stupid Q. of course you only bet 'm when they are the best, no?

Your opponent would have bet the same with AA, maybe AK, JJ or TT. Going all-in.. hmm I think I could have done the same.. depending on errr.. reads.. etc..

Bad luck that you ran into KK.
1) Why in the hell did you min-raise pre-flop????
2) From my experience at these low levels, a min-raise UTG, followed by another min-re-raise is AA or KK 95% of the time.

Best analysis ever. I was playing HU with 100bb stacks. My opponent goes all in preflop from the SB. I look down and see 2  8  . I call. My opponent shows 2  7  . The way I see it I pwn @poker cuz I got my money in w/da best hand.

i never said he played it poorly or wrong at all, i would have palyed it differently and eventually would have gotten all my money in with the worst hand as well.
its unfortunate the other guy had pocket kings, yes. however thats not bad luck.

The min raises show that hes got something big, hes trying to get your money in the middle and you fell for it. I don't see why you raise x2 his original raise though, QQ is kinda one of those hands thats in a league of its own IMO, but not worth all-in preflop at these tables. After you re-raise him and he just x2 raises you hes baiting you, and like Skribbles said this spells AA or KK about 90% of the time.
I would have raised it to 2.00 from his .50 to test him out, and if he re-raised I would seen a flop. After the flop I would have had to make a tough decision but probably would have called eventhough I felt beat, one of those hands you feel beat but you don't want to fold. Well I can't say I'd move on that flop, since it did pair off the flop it might have slowed me down.
To me it seems you made of those plays that says "I have a good hand and don't want to play poker, so I'll push my stack in and let it ride" , to me more of a frustrated play than a smart one.
