Extreme Makeover: Rockets to Toilet Paper

Is there anything I could have done differently here?

SB stats:
36/14/1, but only over 20 hands [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]


Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (8 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Button ($47.75)
SB ($45.55)
BB ($28.25)
UTG ($48.25)
UTG+1 ($232.60)
Hero ($52.30)
MP2 ($42.15)
CO ($48.75)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
UTG calls $0.50, UTG+1 calls $0.50, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $2</font>, MP2 calls $2, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB (poster) calls $1.75, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG folds, UTG+1 calls $1.50.

Flop: ($9) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets $3</font>, UTG+1 folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $9</font>, MP2 folds, SB calls $6.

Turn: ($27) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $15</font>, SB calls $15.

River: ($57) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero ???


In hindsight:
I'm personally leaning to having raised more ($12-$15) on the flop, once the turn came, I think I'm pretty much at the point of throwing good money after bad.


At the turn...

Way ahead of:KK (no [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]), KQ
Fairly ahead of: KK[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]x, AQ (very unlikely)
Fairly behind: QJs (a reasonable pre-flop call for a 36% VPiP)
Way behind: x[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]x[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], QQ, JJ, 99, 22

Opinions?

raise more pf,

I don't play much on Party but if 3 are calling your raise to 4x regularly in the game you happen to be in, then you probably should raise more.

At this point, the chances that I'm ahead don't seem very good at all. The only hands I'm realistically beating here are KK (2/4 chance he has a [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]), AQ (a very unlikely posibility as I have AA), and K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Q

Is it worth it to put that turn bet out there?? Seeing as he's a passive player, would it make sense to reduce the turn bet size? I either get off cheaper, or can fold knowing for sure he's got me beat if he raises?

about kk and aq:
If you have 4 free kings there are 6 ways to make kk.
With 4 free kings and 2 free aces then there are 8 ways to make aq.

So all other things being equal, a random hand will be aq MORE often then kk.
