Default gayest hand ever

What should I do differently? I'm told to raise the flop with flush draws to go for a free card on the turn, but 3 way pot here raised preflop looks like I'll just get 3 bet and they'll bet the turn.

Party Poker 10/20 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, CO folds, Button folds, SB calls, BB calls, UTG calls.

Flop: (8 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, Hero calls, SB calls, BB folds.

Turn: (5.50 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#CC3333">SB 3-bets</font>, Hero calls.

River: (14.50 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: 15.50 BB

with just the broadway or just the heart draw calling should be considered, especially if this opponent is prone to 3-betting the flop here.

but you have 12-18 outs, position, and metagame considerations. I would probably raise here everytime. if he 3-bets i'd probably cap for a free card [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

You know, I'm really not the sort to go around farting on threads, but your thread title is fu[/i]cking lame. Makes 2+2 and this forum look pretty bad, if you ask me.

I expected this thread to be a [censored]-erotic fantasy about a Kd and Jd....

I agree with you knoler. I think this kind of attitude, albeit an unthinking and peurile one, basically says very little for those who are happy to slam minorities as part of their "standard" English. I do not think it is overly PC to say so, either, though clearly many don't give a monkey's toss who they offend. There was quite some debate on this already, here. Also a link to another similar thread....and so on, and so on. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

I think you are overestimating the likely hood you get 3 bet. YOU were the one that raised PF. I go ahead and raise here, if 3 bet I would cap. You've got at least 12 outs, all to the nuts.

yeah i'd raise that flop for the potential free turn card like it was my job. if it does't work, i would not care much either because i have so many outs to the nuts.
