Pocket Q's vs. 3 other players

[Wizard0965]

I've only been at this table for a couple hands but UTG+1 is known to be LAG, no reads on the other two. Did I get scared off a good hand or was my play correct? Do you lead the turn?

Your post needs some work. Can't tell you what I'd do, cuz I don't know who you are or what sooooots your Q's are.

OMG. 3-bet the flop. It absolutely isn't close.

3 bet the flop, bet the turn, bet the river.

You need to play your premium hands aggressively. Sometimes you will be drawn out on and you will wish you han't bet/raised so much but in the long run you will lose much much more money by not pushing your good hands.

exactly!!! you have to three bet that, and your giving way too many free cards away.

I would bet the river after it is checked around when the J falls. Maybe UTG+1 raised the turn to see if you have trip Jacks, he also could have a higher PP or just suited overcards. Since he didn't cap preflop the second scenario is more likely. There is a big chance you're up against AKs or similar hands. Therefore lead out and bet the turn &amp; river.

3-bet the flop. Bet the turn, bet the river.

Your hand is nice, and you should at least defend against the freecardplay.
