This was my second hand at the table, so no real reads on anybody.

Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (10 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif, Q/images/graemlins/club.gif.
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG+2 calls, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+2 calls, <font color="#CC3333">CO caps</font>, Hero calls, UTG+2 calls.

Flop: (13 SB) K/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 2/images/graemlins/club.gif, 3/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, UTG+2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG+2 folds, CO calls.

Turn: (8.50 BB) A/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, CO calls.

River: (10.50 BB) K/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, CO calls.

Final Pot: 12.50 BB

My thinking on the flop was that my hand was vulnerable to UTG+2's holdings, so I check-raised, but I'm not so sure about the merit of that idea.
The turn is ugly, so I was planning to fold if he raised.
What about the river?

Comments?

Bet flop. If called, bet turn and fold to raise. If raised on flop, I think you can safely muck here.

you gotta wonder what CO had....I like your raise on the flop, and betting on T and R.

I like the flop C/R, to see how much he likes his hand, but I'm thinking check the turn when the A comes up. Given his raise PF, I think you have to be behind at this point.

Am I playing this too weakly?

I think he has AQ and thinks that you have AK.

I see a a high pp, QQ or JJ maybe. AQ doesn't make any sense to me, he should have folded at the river. I wish you had reads on this.

I like this line. Against CO playing scared postflop, you may even get a better hand to fold by leading the betting.

Check/call the whole way. Maybe check/fold the river.

Thanks for the replies guys. Turns out CO had JJ and my hand ended up being good.

Any other comments now that you know the results?
