Hawaiian Gardens, 15/30
Haven't been playing much lately and when I wandered in the other day I was greeted by some of the locals and asked where I had been. They obviously miss my donations.
I post after the button in seat 4, very first hand, utg+1 (seat 9) raises, folded to seat 2 who calls, folded to me. I three bet with Qd Qs. Folded back to seat 9 who caps, seat 2 and I call. I don't know either of the other two players. Three of us see a flop of -
3 6 9 rainbow.
Utg+1 bets, seat 2 raises (5 chips) all in, I three bet, utg+1 calls. Two of us and an allin.
Turn is a black 2, for a board of
3 6 9 2
Utg+1 checks, I bet, he calls.
River is another 3. For a board of
3 6 9 2 3
Utg+1 checks, I bet, he calls.
I show my queens, he shows pocket kings.
The all in shows pocket 3's.
I realize that on the surface this hand is quite straight forward, however because of my lack of play lately I'm wondering if I missed something. Early position cap and the raise on the turn?
My question is did I overplay my queens? I felt that the allin player was going all in no matter what he had thus my flop 3 bet. Plus I felt good when utg+1 didn't cap the flop.
btw Hawaiian Gardens paid out 9 bad bet jackpots while I was there, 4 in a three hour period. The jackpot pay out had to be close to $100,000, and no I did not participate in any of them.
Regards, Jim
