I played my first ever live cardroom poker at the Bellagio over the weekend (after several hundred hours, mostly at 2-4 HE and O8 on Paradise) and I had a question about one of the few hands that I actually participated in, in part to check my thought process, and in part to guage the reaction of the other player.
The game is pretty tight/passive, and at this point, I've only played one or two hands outside the blinds, and my only showdowns were out of the blinds, so I haven't been showing anything wild.
I get As3s in the cutoff, 2 UTG limps, one MP limps, I limp, SB folds, BB checks. (Good/Bad/Indifferent?)
Flop is Qc 3c X, action goes check, check, bet, I call (G/B/I? - I took a card off because I thought there was a small chance I was best, and I was planning on taking a shot at the pot of the third club fell. BB calls, early limper folds.
Turn is a rag club. BB checks, MP checks, I bet (G/B/I? - I hadn't bet anything other than top pair or better at this point, and I was planning on folding to a check-raise.) BB folds, MP calls.
River is the Ac, giving me top and bottom 2-pair, but putting a 4-flush on the board. MP checks. Now what?
