Hi I've been reading the 2+2 forums for a little bit (I found it about 2 weeks ago). I found a hand that bothers me and was wondering if you guys could critiuqe my play.
PokerStars 0.02/0.04 Hold'em (7 handed)
Preflop: Hero is CO with A/images/graemlins/spade.gif, Q/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
UTG calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, Button calls, SB calls, BB calls, UTG calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls.
Flop: (14 SB) T/images/graemlins/club.gif, 4/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, J/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(7 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="CC3333">MP1 bets</font>, MP2 calls, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, Button folds, SB folds, BB calls, UTG calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls.
The pot got huge b/c of my preflop raise, so I wanted to be aggressive and fold some people, giving me a better chance to win, even if I might be behind. I was thinking along the lines of one of Ed Miller's posts about being more aggressive in big pots. Right now I think I have 10 outs (3 Aces, 3 Queens, 4 Kings).
Turn: (12 BB) Q/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="blue">(5 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="CC3333">MP1 bets</font>, MP2 folds, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB folds, UTG calls, MP1 calls.
I hit one of my outs, so I raised.
River: (18 BB) Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="blue">(3 players)</font>
UTG checks, <font color="CC3333">MP1 bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG folds, <font color="CC3333">MP1 3-bets</font>, Hero calls.
MP1's betting pattern has been really weird, but I raised again with trip Q's anyway. The reraise makes me think he's been smoothcalling some bets in the early rounds (set?).
Final Pot: 24 BB
<font color="green">Main Pot: 24 BB, between MP1 and Hero.</font> > <font color="white">Pot won by MP1 (24 BB).</font>
Results in white below: <font color="white">
MP1 shows 9s 8c (straight, queen high).
Hero shows As Qd (three of a kind, queens).
Outcome: MP1 wins 24 BB. </font>
Did I make a mistake anywhere?
