I'm out on the flop. Against 3 opponents, you will probably have to improve to better than pairing your queen (because in this case, someone probably has a pair of kings). So you will have to catch runner/runner something, two pair or a flush. When that's your only way out, there's pretty much no way you can continue.

The thing about the river bet is that he will almost never call you with a hand you beat. If he's been stabbing with a pair of sevens or something, he's probably going to fold. But he will call you (or worse, raise you) with his kings and take your money.

You're right - for some reason I was calculating 3:1 instead of 7:1. Complete preflop. Flopping just a queen would still warrant caution, though.

Everyone already said it.. I'd complete the SB and see the flop, but there's no reason to call the flop bet. You basically need 2 running cards to feel good about your hand. Realistically, all you have to draw to is bottom pair or 2nd pair with no kicker. It's a small pot, just chuck it.

Fold the flop; why did you bet the river?

On the flop you are an underdog to a random hand, let alone one willing to bet.

If you actually beat AJ in this hand that is cool, but long-term calling the flop is terrible.

Grunching....

PF call is ok.

Fold the flop:
With weak draws (back door flush & back door str8) and small pot you really don't have the odds to make a call on the flop.

No reads?

Preflop call is okay.

What are you calling on the flop? With less than 4 outs, out of position and a small pot, muck it.

The rest is history.

I think I would fold the flop. You have very few outs.
