Preflop: Hero is CO with Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.1.
1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.25, UTG+2 calls $0.25, 1 fold, MP2 calls $0.25, MP3 calls $0.25, Hero calls $0.25, 1 fold, SB (poster) completes, BB checks.

I know some would argue to raise. I have been losing with AQ in early position because I've been missing on the flop too often and having to fold to reraises too often postflop. So unless I'm in late position, I've been limping more. (I just noticed I am in late position... still, I've been losing with this hand cause I keep missing. I'm limping more then I should perhaps....)

Flop: ($1.75) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (7 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG+1 checks, UTG+2 bets $1, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, Hero calls $1, SB folds, BB folds, UTG+1 folds.

**Here's my real question. Is this a terrible call? I have an inside straight draw and a backdoor flush. I figured the player would slowdown if I called since he's out of position and he's a generally passive player... so assuming we go heads up, I might get a free card. Thoughts?

Turn: ($3.75) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
UTG+2 checks, Hero bets $3, UTG+2 calls $3.

Nut flush draw and the nut straight... I figure he'll let me know if he has the flush AND, if he does, I still have redraws to the nuts, right?

River: ($9.75) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)
UTG+2 checks, Hero bets $5, UTG+2 calls $5.

Wasn't sure how much to bet here. Its a scary board for him so I wasn't sure he'd call anything without a flush.

Final Pot: $19.75
