Well, it seems to be unanimous. I've been thinking about this hand all day, thinking I should have re-raised. Your comments have sold me. Here's what happened:
I just called the checkraise, as did the 2 limpers. River was a brick:
Jd [Qc 3h 5s 7h]
BB bet out, I called, limpers folded. BB looks at me and says: "One pair". I say: "Are you serious?" He says: "Queen." And of course I'm good. Christ. The limpers were a little pissed at BB for checkraising with such a weak hand.
I think part of the reason I didn't re-raise had something to do with the whole passive friendly 'vibe' of the game, infiltrating my being. This is very unlike me--believe it or not, I'm pretty aggressive. The turn and river betting never went past $40 all night, and it seemed like just about everyone was soft-playing everyone but me. (My first time at this game, and it was well worth my while... [img]/forums/images/icons/tongue.gif[/img])
But I didn't protect my hand, and assuming one of the limpers would have called my re-raise, I missed some bets.
