UTG is 44/8/0.97 Pretty standard loose-passive, slows down vs aggression.
MP is 68/11/1.45.

Preflop: Hero is SB with A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 9/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
UTG calls, MP calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, MP calls.
Depending on the table I start raising here with ATs+ or A9s+.

Flop: (8 SB) Q/images/graemlins/club.gif, A/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 5/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, <font color="#CC3333">MP raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, MP calls.
I though a few seconds about 3-betting here but as noone showed aggression before the flop I thought there is a good chance I am still best here and could get it Headsup with MP.

Turn: (10 BB) 4/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, MP calls, Hero calls, BB calls.
When UTG coldcalls 2 on the flop and starts raising here, I must be in trouble. Pot is pretty large though so I would call this down unless I face 2 at the river or improve.

River: (18 BB) 9/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, <font color="#CC3333">MP raises</font>, Hero calls, BB calls, UTG calls.
Now I have a nice 2 pair. A set seems unlikely but MP wakes up again. Pot surely is too large to fold, what about 3betting?

Final Pot: 26 BB
