QQ hand, did I slow down too soon?

[Rubeskies]

Since he made it Triz preflop and the way he played it made me think like he had Aces mores and more. Would anyone else cap this turn and continue pushing on the river?

I had no read on him so I wasn't sure what he was capable of three betting preflop with.

Would he also play this way with AQ, AK? Even A J? JJ? If yes, then you are losing money everytime you don't push your trips. Sometimes he will have AA, but chances are, he will have a hand you beat the majority of the time.
Just my guess.

nevermind, misread hand

[Ralph Wiggum]

BB calls PF. I think that answers your question.

[sluttysteve]

Umm, didn't BB call you and UTG+1's preflop raises? Aces seem out of the question.

Doesn't make sense for him to be reraising with KT on the flop, so it looks more like A4 or maybe even a passive AQ to me. Cap the turn and reraise on river!

[Rubeskies]

You guys are right, he only called preflop.

Chalk this one up to careless multi tableing.


He turned over A4o for two pair and MHIG

[tipperdog]

Yeah, I think you did slow up too soon. Now if UTG+1 (the limp-reraiser) were ramming and jamming post flop, I'd be more worried. But he's folded.

The BB's play is bizzare, IMO. With AA, he'd surely have 3-bet pre-flop. With KT, he wouldn't (or shouldn't) 3-bet the flop, opening the door for your predictable cap. Maybe 44? K/images/graemlins/heart.gif T/images/graemlins/heart.gif? A4? The only hand I can imagine him holding that's ahead of you on the turn is K/images/graemlins/heart.gif T/images/graemlins/heart.gif--and that's a longshot. I'd cap the turn and if he comes out firing on the river (after you failed to fill-up), I'd just call there.
