Default AQs gets capped on the flop...

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

MP1 is 92/0/.33 after about 70 hands... Calls down with any piece of the board. I hadn't seen him raise yet.

How's my turn and river play here?

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP1 calls, <font color="#666666">6 folds</font>.

Flop: (5.50 SB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 caps</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: (6.75 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, MP1 checks.

River: (6.75 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises</font>, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 10.75 BB

The betting on this hand is a little strange. The play on the flop suggests that you be up against a set of 7's or 9's. However, the soft play on the turn looks more like a steaight draw. Since I think one of the sets is likely, I would have checked and called the hand down

Against most players I like the bet call. But 90/0/.33 just get to showdown

I think we should be able to fold to the river raise here.

Because his hands are likely either:

-Draw (no value in betting if missed, but often players will bet their missed draw here)
-2 pair
-trips

I think the second two are more likely. Even if they have the first, they might have gotten there and trying to let you catch up. They have position on you.

I think we can fold to the river raise too if we bet, since I don't like that, I check/call and get value of the hands that don't beat me and lose the least when I'm behind. Plus, many worse pairs will bet.

Check/call the river.

Since you didn't, I think that you can fold to the raise.

Thanks very much,

I think check/call makes the most sense in retrospect. I catch the bluffers get to see the showdown. What hands that are raising do I beat? None. I gotta lay it down if I don't checkcall.
