Default 40 80 QQ in the small blind

6 handed online game. Both of my opponents in this hand frequently limp first into the pot and cold call before the flop.

Preflop: MP raises, hijack folds, cutoff cold calls, button folds, hero 3-bets with QQ from the SB, BB folds, all call.

Flop: AKJ rainbow. Hero bets, MP raises, hijack folds, hero calls.

Turn 3. Hero checks, MP bets, hero calls.

River 8. Hero checks, MP bets, hero folds.

Comments? Especially on the river.

It looks like an easy fold on the turn.

I don't think it's an easy fold on the turn. You didn't say anythinga bout his postflop play, but it seems like thsi villian bet/semibluffs a big range on the turn, but value bets no hands we beat on the river. I doubt he's trying to pure bluff a guy who 3bet PF out of the SB.

People asking about reads -- I have none other than what I wrote in the original post.

I will say that in my experience, many people who like to limp in also have a narrower than normal preflop raising range.
