Final Pot: t400
At least two opponents were the type I thought might call preflop with any suited cards. Against tight opponents, I call, but these players had me worried about garbage flush draws. At this point, I'm thinking I'd rather just take the chips in the pot on the turn rather than taking what is essentially a coin flip. Even if one bozo on a flush or straight draw calls me I'm way ahead. It's the ensemble of opponenets I don't like.
1) Should I have limped this in the first place? I'm playing it as a drawing hand and would have folded to flop action.
2) Do I call this and play it as a draw against a non-ace red card on the river, in which case I collect from everyone playing a queen and anyone who bluffs the river?
