QQ with AK10 flop
 
Please break down my play

Game: 4/8 @ commerce

Reads:
BB - passive, semi-loose; always defends blinds
UTG - passive and very loose
EP - loose, aggressive
CO - loose, semi-aggressive; thinking player (I overheard him talk about his strategies)
BUTTON - ME

Pre-flop:
I have Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] on BUTTON
UTG calls, UTG+1 folds, EP calls, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, CO calls,
I raise, SB folds, BB calls, UTG calls, EP calls, CO calls

Flop: 10 SB (9SB + 1 for rake)
A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]10 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
BB check, UTG check, EP check, CO check,
I bet, BB fold, UTG call, EP call, CO fold

Turn: 6.5BB
7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG check, EP check, I check

River: 6.5BB
3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
UTG check, EP bet, I call, UTG fold

On the flop, I thought I should bet because maybe nobody had and A or K. I had a inside straight draw and a high back-ddor flush draw. I thought it was a good bet.

Check the turn? I figured one opponent probably had Q or J with a straight draw, but probably the other one had A or K. I figured an A definitely wouldn't fold and it would be tough to get a K to fold considering how loose UTG and EP were. So I checked hoping for a J.

Your thoughts?

Do I have odds to call with 7.5BB (including EP's bet) and one player to act?

Your thinking and action looks good on all streets. If there were a bet and call in front of you on the river I would have folded.

[/ QUOTE ]If the opponent hasn't ever made any bets of their own (only called yours), I think you have to call them to see if they're bluffing. Checking through the turn can encourage even a passive player to bet their T.

Otherwise all good play.
