Pocket QQs

With the King on the flop I was immediately worried, but figured I had to bet and find out.

When the 2nd King fell, I figured there was a better chance my opponents were playing a J or a draw. So I bet again - mindfull that I might get raised.

The river is the very suspect area.

When the 3rd diamond fell and UTG came to life, I feared a flush. I figured I had to call anyway in such a large pot without any read. Then MP1 popped it and UTG called.

I thought I was almost certainly beat, but the pot was huge and I called.

Calling the first river bet is fine, but I would fold to the raise. One bet, big pot, etc., but there is no way in hell your hand is good here.

First river call is a crying call... the second is not good. He raised a bettor and caller on the river. You lose.
