You guys are right, of course, and thank you all for the feedback. That is why I posted this hand. I knew I had messed up royally but needed help in really figuring out where I went wrong. KQ (suited or not) from early position (or any position for that matter) is not a play i should be making and after that I just made it worse.
It was an expensive lesson - we will see how well I learned it.
Thanks again

I have still yet to have anyone give me a valid reason for it with any hand.

1. KQ suited or offsuit is trash, espeically from an early position like UTG+1. You will be dominated very often, and anytime you get action when you hold your high pair, you are probably losing. I believe KQ is an outright fold in this position. KQ on the cutoff seat or the button in an unraised pot, is ok...but remember it's a danger hand.
2. The reraise wasn't a horrible play. You were representing AA and sadly he had you beat. When he reraised another $16....well I'm trying to figure out the odds but the hand converter has me confused when it says you called "$0" Can someone with better math skills give us a clue here?You have 12 outs with 2 cards to come...it pretty much is an automatic call unless the bet is monster.
