First hand at the table, and this place is complete and utter LAG with 70% seeing the flop and the average pot > 10BB.

I think I mangled this considering my position (immediate left of the big better) and should have encouraged overcalls.

PokerStars 0.05/0.10 Hold'em (8 handed)

Preflop: Hero is CO with 9/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 7/images/graemlins/diamond.gif. Hero posts a blind of $0.05.
UTG calls, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, Hero (poster) checks, Button folds, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (6 SB) 6/images/graemlins/spade.gif, K/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 4/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="blue">(6 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">SB bets</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, MP1 calls, <font color="CC3333">MP2 raises</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, SB calls, BB calls, UTG calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls.

Well, the 3-bet worked out okay...

Turn: (12 BB) Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="blue">(6 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="CC3333">UTG bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">MP1 raises</font>, <font color="CC3333">MP2 3-bets</font>, Hero calls, SB calls, BB calls, UTG calls, <font color="CC3333">MP1 caps</font>, MP2 calls, Hero calls, SB calls, BB calls, UTG calls.

I think I'm up against a set here. I call figuring it will be capped, and it is. At this point I figure someone has a set or 2 pair and I really don't want to see 6:d: or Q:d:.

River: (34 BB) A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="blue">(6 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, MP1 checks, <font color="CC3333">MP2 bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB folds, BB folds, UTG folds, MP1 folds, MP2 calls.

Call here, and hope I get everyone to call? Or is the raise g00t?

Final Pot: 38 BB

MP2 flips over K/images/graemlins/spade.gif6/images/graemlins/diamond.gif and I take down the biggest pot I have... but could it have been bigger?

looks okay, i guess.

I may try for overcalls there, you gained 1BB where overcalling would have guaranteed at least 2BB out of 4 players...
