I've revised the hand playback from the standpoint of the fish, with commentary added.

Party Poker 0.50/1 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. MP2 posts a blind of $0.50.
2 folds, UTG+2 calls, 1 fold, MP2 (poster) checks, MP3 raises, CO 3-bets, Hero calls, 2 folds, UTG+2 folds, MP2 folds, MP3 calls.

This pot is getting pretty big. I'd like to win it! I'm on the button, which is the best spot, and I have a queen, so calling is a no-brainer.

Flop: (12.50 SB) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (3 players)
MP3 bets, CO calls, Hero calls.

On the flop, not only do I have a pair with a high kicker, I almost have a straight. My chances are pretty good, so I have to call.

Turn: (7.75 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 players)
MP3 bets, CO calls, Hero raises, MP3 3-bets, CO folds, Hero caps, MP3 calls.

Yes, now I'm going to win! This idiot is even raising me back! What an ass-tard! I might even get my straight still and even beat him better.

River: (16.75 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
MP3 checks, Hero bets, MP3 raises, Hero 3-bets, MP3 caps, Hero calls.

Oh, yeah! I have a full house! I'm unbeatable! This is going to be the biggest pot I've won all night!

Final Pot: 24.75 BB
Main Pot: 24.75 BB, between MP3 and Hero.

Insert lots of cursing and complaining about how you always get "sucked out" on the river by bad players who should have known better than to call your raises in the first place.
