QQ overpair hand against large field of cold callers.

[Jeff W]

I think I just need to be scolded for my play here. I was planning to go for a check/raise of a late position player or bet the turn if it was checked around. I suppose I'm probably on passive/tricky-tilt and need to take a break after a harrowing night at 3/6. Read on CO: Tight/Aggressive/Aggressive Post flop.

Party Poker 3/6 Hold'em (10 handed)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Qc, Qd.
4 folds, MP2 calls, 1 fold, CO raises, 1 fold, Hero 3-bets, BB calls, MP2 calls, CO calls.

Flop: (12 SB) 4h, 6d, 2h (4 players)
Hero checks, BB checks, MP2 checks, CO checks.

Turn: (6 BB) 8h (4 players)
Hero bets, BB raises, MP2 folds, CO calls, Hero calls.

River: (12 BB) 4d (3 players)
Hero bets, BB raises, CO folds, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 16 BB
Main Pot: 16 BB, between BB and Hero.

Once you know you are off you game, take a break. It's all one big session.

I'd like you flop line better if LP capped but since he did not and is raising after only one limper, he's unlikely of a holding that will bet this flop. So, bet it.

Go Sox!

Thanks for the advice in both posts, you were right on all counts. BB showed 88 and I really should have folded to the river raise or better still check-called to save the last bet. Although it's possible an unknown party 3/6 player calls 2 bets cold with 6/2 or 6/8 here, it isn't likely.
