Default Re: KQ on ragged board against ragged players

I'm confused. Are UTG and UTG+1 the same guy and you just labled them wrong (meaning UTG folded preflop?) I think thats how i'm reading it meaning that 3 of you saw the turn card, right? If thats the case, I think your read was right, but you're play was wrong. You have 12 outs, so raising the turn is -EV, even if MP2 calls both bets cold. You need to hit to win this hand, so just call the turn bet. If MP2 raises and UTG+1 calls, then I might consider 3 betting, but mostly just to encourage even more gambling later (I hate being perceived as a 'rock' in a game like this).

Now for some house keeping issues.

"UTG bets, Hero reraises..."
No you didn't, you raised. re-raised implies a 3rd bet.

"I have an outside flush draw and outside straight draw"
We call this 'backdoor', as you need running cards to hit, i've never seen 'outside' used this way before, maybe i'm to old...

lastly for online hands check out the converter. It will read your hand histories and post them in a very fluid and easy to ready fashion. you can find it here.
