Default 3 pair on the turn

Party Poker (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is SB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
4 limpers or so, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
Checked to MP2 who bets pot, Hero calls (?)

Turn: 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, MP2 bets $6 into $20, Hero check raises pot, MP2 calls.

River: 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, MP2 bets pot ($90 or so), Hero folds.

Eh. I don't like any of it.

what do you put the opponent on that he'll fold? Looks like a strong draw on the flop that didn't get there, so he tried to buy a cheap river. His draw is probably strong enough to take the 2:1 odds though, so I can't see him folding often to the turn raise, unless he's on nothing.

Pretty much the worst river possible, a must-fold. If you can get the board to pair you could hope he checks so you can fire another barrel.

What strong draws are there on the flop? Personally I just didn't understand the turn bet, I figured a set (QQ being the likely culprit) would pop it again and most everything else would check behind. I figured he was just being a typical donk, that my hand was likely good and that if he did have 234 I didn't want to give him a free shot at it.

Check fold the flop.

Not a hand in poker you're favourite against who will call your heat on that flop.
What happens on the flop is you either win a very small pot, or you lose a very big pot. This is why you dont get involved.
