This was my last hand of the session, so I'd like to see if maybe that influenced me to play this hand. How is the aggression on the flop & turn, good or chip spewing? Additional thoughts and questions below.

BB - 63/19/6.33/25/50 after 27 hands
UTG+1 - 18/5/3.33/17/50 after 116 hands

Thanks for any comments.

Hero ($47.75)
UTG+1 ($44.25)
MP1 ($85.50)
MP2 ($36.87)
MP3 ($47.25)
CO ($48.75)
Button ($30.03)
SB ($42.05)
BB ($71.42)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
Hero calls $0.50, UTG+1 raises to $1.5, 4 folds, Button calls $1.50, 1 fold, BB calls $1, Hero calls $1.

I always limp KQs in EP and will fold to a raise, but I was getting ~5:1 on this call, is it okay or fishy?

Flop: ($6.25) Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (4 players)
BB bets $3, Hero raises to $9, UTG+1 calls $9, Button folds, BB calls $6.

Not a lot of hands on BB, but I suspect he bets out when he's got any piece of the flop, so I'm think he's got Kx, Qx, or maybe even 55 now. How's my raise, good, bad, not large enough? UTG+1 smooth calling makes me think he's got AA or AK. BB calling my raise makes me think my hand is good, as he'd likely re-raise with 55.

Turn: ($33.25) 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 players)
BB bets $15, Hero calls $37.25 (All-In), UTG+1 calls $33.75 (All-In), BB calls $22.25.

Could that 7 really have helped him? I still think my hand is good, and I'm not calling, so I push.

River: ($141.50) 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 players, 2 all-in)

Final Pot: $141.50
