Button is a decent player, not overly aggressive unless he actually has something good.
Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (9 handed)
Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif, A/images/graemlins/spade.gif.
UTG folds, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, CO folds, Button calls, SB calls, BB calls.
Flop: (8 SB) 7/images/graemlins/spade.gif, J/images/graemlins/spade.gif, Q/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="blue">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">Button raises</font>, SB calls, BB calls, <font color="CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, Button calls, SB calls, BB calls.
Turn: (10 BB) 8/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="blue">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls, SB calls, BB calls.
River: (14 BB) 2/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="blue">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls, SB folds, BB folds.
Final Pot: 16 BB
As soon as I got raised on the flop, I was pretty sure that the button must have had at least two pair or a set. I figured that since my hand had a lot of ways to improve, I figured it would be good to be aggressive. Was the flop 3 bet and turn bet too much? Should I have just checked/folded the river?
