A hand from 2/4 on Pacific. Table is loose. UTG seems loose and aggressive. He's been raising what seems like too much but I couldn't really tell due to what was shown down. Other players just seemed like the usual LAPs.
Preflop:
UTG raises, ep calls 2, mp calls 2, I raise, button calls 3 cold, blinds fold, utg calls, ep calls, mp folds
4 to flop for 15 sb
flop: 9 /images/graemlins/spade.gif J /images/graemlins/club.gif 7 /images/graemlins/heart.gif
utg bets, ep calls, I call, button calls
4 to turn for 9.5 bb
turn: (9 /images/graemlins/spade.gif J /images/graemlins/club.gif 7 /images/graemlins/heart.gif) Q /images/graemlins/diamond.gif
utg bets, ep calls, I raise, button calls 2, utg 3 bets, ep folds, I call, button calls
3 to river for 19 bb
river: (9 /images/graemlins/spade.gif J /images/graemlins/club.gif 7 /images/graemlins/heart.gif Q /images/graemlins/diamond.gif) 7 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif
UTG bets, I call, button calls
showdown: 3 players, 22 bb pot
So I don't think I played the hand well but here is my reasoning. On the flop I decided to call thinking I could get more money in by waiting until the turn. I didn't want to drop the ep and button by forcing them to call cold probably twice on the flop. I was hoping that with a larger pot they would do this when the betting doubled. His turn three bet convinced me that he had something and I could have been behind, but with the pot that size there is no way I was folding an overpair. On the river I went for the overcall.
