Villains were 28/5/2, 51/14/1.4, but less than 100 hands on each.

Empire Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (10 handed)converter

Button ($23.10)
SB ($28.75)
Hero ($27.55)
UTG ($23.45)
UTG+1 ($5.75)
UTG+2 ($25.95)
MP1 ($25.75)
MP2 ($18.10)
MP3 ($27.45)
CO ($14.05)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.10.
2 folds, UTG+2 raises to $1, 3 folds, CO calls $1, 2 folds, Hero calls $0.75.

Flop: ($3.10) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 players)
Hero checks, UTG+2 bets $2, CO calls $2, Hero raises to $6

I hate premium pairs OOP. So I decided to flat call UTG+1's preflop raise and keep it small. When the flop came up somewhat dry, I thought this might be a decent spot for a checkraise, but I rarely use them. If I'm called here I'm done.

Figured giving a flush draw a free card was a very small risk; one of these guys will bet the flop.

Decent? Bigger? Strictly alternate?

i would lead out the flop. If you are determined to CR, i would bump it to like 10 because any draws have the odds to call your $6 RR and you are OOP.

I definitely don't like it. Do you fold to a reraise? What hands to people call with? I think you are letting him off the hook too easily with AK when he folds to your c/r and you are paying off AA or KK with your stack since you will likely not fold to a reraise.

Anyways, I would try and play it for a small pot by leading for 90% pot size bet on the turn.

don't like it. I lead flop for full pot. Lead blank turn for 2/3 and Check/call a blank river

Raise preflop, bet the flop.

why reraise? OOP this costs you money in the long run i think. they will only call you with AKo (or most likely). when you c/b the flop they can either get away for nothing if they missed the ace or take you off your hand if an ace flops even if they dont have one.
