Hmmm... I do enjoy the "mixed" advice tradition of 2+2. I'm not quite sure what to take from this.

I am pretty well settled that the flop call was the worst of my three options (as it often seems to be) - that I probably should have reraised, or folded, in that order.


As far as the "AQ would have raised" theory -- I guess I'm in a minority, then, that I do not usually raise with AQ when UTG, especially against a typically loose table, as this was. I probably limp more than half the time in that spot -- but I'll give mnore though to playing it aggressively there, and will be more aware of that possibility/probability against others.


Anyway... whatever my logic, flawed or otherwise, my suspicions were correct:

UTG shows AQ...
Hero shows KQ, and is outkicked with trips.
UTG takes 14.5 BB pot.
