Preflop: Hero is CO with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+2 raises to t800</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP3 calls t800, Hero calls t800, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>.

If I push here, one of these guys is calling me, definitely MP3 and maybe both. Range is any ace, any pair, and possibly anything suited.

Flop: (t3000) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
UTG+2 checks, MP3 checks, Hero checks.

Normally I'd bet 1500 here. But with only 4085 I think I'm pot-committed, and MP3 would call with low pair here.

<font color="#CC3333">UTG+2 bets t400</font>, MP3 calls t400, Hero calls t400.

I really thought about an all-in here. I think it was more likely to get folds on this street, and of course I had the draw.

River: (t4200) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
UTG+2 checks, MP3 checks, Hero checks.

Bet all-in here? This just seems so weak to me. I played it this way because of my short stack. BTW I doubled up off MP3 a few hands later when he slowplayed kings and I'm still kicking.

Final Pot: t4200

fold that preflop, or else pushin. calling 16% of your chips is the worst option.
I fold that preflop.
