A little background - Button is well known 2+2 solid thinking player. UTG+1 is certifiable loon with VPIP of >70% for the 50 or so hands I have on him. BB is little loose but not tricky.

Party Poker 15/30 Hold'em (9 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif, Q/images/graemlins/club.gif.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP3 calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls, UTG+1 calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero caps</font>, MP3 folds, Button calls, BB calls, UTG+1 calls. - Standard play here.

Flop: (18.66 SB) 6/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 7/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 2/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG+1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls, BB calls, UTG+1 calls.

Also played it itself. 2+2'er calling bothers me a bit as it seems he wants to keep the customers in between. His holdings after the preflop 3 bet and this flop action are pretty much KK, AA, or the other QQ. I put almost zero chance on AK, AQ, AJ as he would want to get the play heads-up after the flop. JJ also would not want any cheap cards for me to connect if I held AK, or AQ.

Turn: (11.33 BB) 7/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG+1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, BB folds, UTG+1 calls, Hero calls.

This pretty much narrowed his holding down to AA or KK.

River: (17.33 BB) A/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
UTG+1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">

I bet knowing I have at best the second best hand.

Thoughts later.

I was hoping the 2+2'er had KK and put a small percentage on the chance that he would fold it. With the pot size even a small chance makes this worth it I think.

I have no problem with your line at all. And it was a goof fold on the river.

I like it. river bet will possibly get KK to fold. you can safely fold to a raise.

i really like how you were able to narrow down his holdings as much as you did by the flop. but a little confused on how you were so sure he didn't have AK.
