Party Poker 0.50/1 Hold'em (9 handed)

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif, J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, CO folds, Hero calls, SB folds, BB checks.

Flop: (4.50 SB) K/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 7/images/graemlins/heart.gif, T/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG+1 checks, MP1 checks, <font color="CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, UTG+1 folds, <font color="CC3333">MP1 raises</font>, Hero calls, BB calls.

I didn't cap, worried about the A /images/graemlins/heart.gif. I am also not going to fold sucha good hand, when the table is full of LAG's.


Turn: (5.25 BB) 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="CC3333">MP1 bets</font>, Hero calls, BB calls.

River: (8.25 BB) 6/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="blue">(3 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">BB bets</font>, MP1 folds, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB calls.

This seems like solid play, I am just wondering if I played this correctly?

Final Pot: 12.25 BB
<font color="#990066">Main Pot: 12.25 BB, between Hero and BB.</font> &gt; <font color="white">Pot won by Hero (12.25 BB).</font>

Results in white below: <font color="white">
BB shows 9h 7c (flush, king high).
Hero shows Qh Jd (flush, king high).
Outcome: Hero wins 12.25 BB. </font>

I fold preflop. KJo and ATo IŽll play unless the limpers are tight.
QJo I play after max 1 limper who didnŽt come in from EP, unless he is clueless to position and will have a very wide hand range from anywhere. Then I prolly raise to isolate him.

Postflop is fine.

This is where I am confused. All three of these hands are ranked by Sklansky just about equally. As a matter of fact ATo is a shade under QJo.

Chances are I will have one of the better hands pre-flop and I have the button, why do I fold?

Well, obviously this depends on how the limpers play, but without a read I like to be on the tight side.

I like AT better because many of the players will limp with worse Aces, but not worse Queens or Jacks.
Axs(off too for that matter) is popular in those games...

If both limpers will play any Q or J, then IŽll come along with QJ.
