BB- slightly loose decent aggression. 30/7/2... really has not done anything stupid in the 30 or so hands I have been at the table.
UTG is the reason I am at the table.
Hero is UTG2 w black queens
PF: UTG limps, Hero raises, BB 3bets, UTG calls, Hero caps, all call
Flop: (12SB) Q /images/graemlins/heart.gif J /images/graemlins/spade.gif 7 /images/graemlins/club.gif
BB checks, UTG bets, Hero raises, BB 3-bets, UTG folds, Hero caps
Turn: (10.5 BB) K /images/graemlins/heart.gif
BB checks, Hero bets, BB raises, hero calls with the intention of calling river.
The flop checkraise made me think that he wanted to be HU, which I felt meant the flop had hit him as well. I am not sure that he would 3-bet AQ Pre flop. I had been doing some isolating, so if he was a thinking player he might think I am raising light. But I really had not been caught doing anything dumb. Also, I am hesitant to give a semi-unknown with LAG tendencies credit for being a thinking player.
The turn check-raise really bothered me. I did not really consider folding, but I though further aggression was foolish.
Maybe he is semi-bluffing with TT, maybe he flopped a set of jacks, at this point I really don't see AK or AQ. I also don't see him three-betting PF with KQ or QJ
In my mind it is AA or KK. I hate to get that narrow, but I think the action justifies the read.
But at the same time I can't find a fold.
Thoughts.
