Default Re: Early on Party Super Monday AQ hand

it's pretty unlikely they have that many outs. the board is Q939. if they have QJ and TT, it's 5. 35 and KQ, 5. the only way they're getting a lot of outs is if one has JT.

I thought KJ or KT might be likely hands for UTG. Both of those hands open up a lot more outs. It seems like he had too perfect of a chance to checkraise both of us on the flop in a big pot if he actually held a strong hand, so taking one off with an OESD or single overcard gutshot seemed a lot more likely. A weaker Q certainly isn't out of the question either though.

I was the BB this hand. The table was playing really weak tight and I had had some success picking up unwanted pots after the flop. I called with KQ diamonds pre-flop. TP2K is not exactly an exciting flop for me here. Your flop bet seemed a little big considering the pretty safe flop. I might have check-raised you(and folded to a push) if CO doesn't call. Not real happy with my overcall, but I felt there was enough of a chance that my hand was good against something like AK and TT to take one off and see what developed. When the board paired on the turn I was really confused by your push. The board is no more or less threatening than on the flop. I really couldn't see what you could be scared of. If the 9 helped someone you are dead and if it didn't your pushing everyone out of the pot. I really did not give you credit for AQ at this point and probably would have paid you off. Fortunately for me the CO called you first and saved me from that decision.(He had A9 of hearts I believe). I'm not sure which of the three of us played the hand the worst, but I don't think much was done right here.
