5-10 PL at the Borg
The Game: Roughly a 50-50 mix of good players and donators and I've been playing fairly tight and somewhat aggressive pf for two hours. Two of the donators are in the 1st and 3rd seats on my left.

Jeff,
I seriously doubt the likelihood of either opponent having a full house. Here's why:
If button had an overpair (and we're concerned specifically with QQ here) there is no way he checks...

You should be asking: "Why am I playing in a game in which this is a question?"

Amen, Brother Andy
Sure, every once-in-awhile you'll get shown a better kicker or an overpair by a pip or two, but I like players who don't raise and let me do all the betting. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

My thoughts
Daryn and Huh are correct. I should not have contemplated folding to a three bet on the turn. The bet on the turn after being raised on the flop smells like either a classic stop-and-go with AQ or...

My thoughts
I suspect that Andy is being kind, while SoBe is being a little harsh. Yeah, I know, A3o isn't the greatest of hands. Normally this is turbo mucked, but this table, at this time, was that one time...

Did I play this right? - Maybe
If the guy on your left had an odor problem, I could see you leaning to the right. Did you play incorrectly? Yes.
