Default Re: getting ahead of myself.

There's a couple of things I don't understand here.

First is why no check/3bet on the flop? Just calling 2 cold seems to really advertise a flush draw, doesn't it? Threebetting with 2 opponents can't be wrong, and it puts the "monster" possibility into your range. How would you play a set here?

Second is why raise the turn? SB almost definately has an ace, and probably a decent one, so were drawing and he's not folding. Even if you get UTG+1 off a better hand, say KK or something, your not SB off of an ace, especially after calling 2 cold on the turn. Wouldn't we rather let UTG+1 draw to his 2 outer to cushion your drawing odds, unless he has exactly QQ he can't have any of your outs.

The river is tough. Your hand looks pretty weak, and his AF is skewed greatly by his VPIP (easy to go nuts when all you play is AK and big pairs). I think this is a call, but a crying call at best.
