First, failing to check-raise (or bet) the river was clearly a blunder. I checked planning to check raise, got the exact action expected and suddenly chickened out. No excuse there...bad play.

Second, results notwithstanding, I'm now seriously questioning my turn call. If you accept that I have 4 "effective" outs (which I think is a reasonable guess), I'm getting correct odds...but only if I'll win the entire pot. Given that I'm splitting with any Q if a J hits, I don't think that's an assumption I can make. However, I'm glad I wasn't thinking this "clearly" yesterday.

Results: The "tight" MP 3-bettor had A5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Guess my read was a bit off [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]. Super-LAG called 3-bets cold with AJo, a horrid play, but not surprising. And the MP PF cold caller had 99--a flopped set which he chose to slowplay on among the nastiest boards imaginable. They are all on my buddy list.
