Default KQs bunch of decisions

Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

My thoughts in white. Reads: LA-P is just that, too many hands, pretty easy to fold to his aggression postflop. Possible Good Player is loose by my standards but wouldn't limp in EP without something reasonable.

Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. MP1 posts a blind of $0.5.
UTG <font color="#A500AF">(Mr. No Read)</font> calls, UTG+1 <font color="#A500AF">(Possible Good player)</font> calls, MP1 (poster) checks, MP2 <font color="#A500AF">(LA-P)</font> calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG <font color="#A500AF">(Mr. No Read)</font> calls, UTG+1 <font color="#A500AF">(Possible Good player)</font> calls, MP1 folds, MP2 <font color="#A500AF">(LA-P)</font> calls.

Flop: (12 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Mr. No Read bets</font>, Possible Good player calls, LA-P calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB folds, Mr. No Read calls, <font color="#CC3333">Possible Good player 3-bets</font>, LA-P calls, Hero calls, Mr. No Read calls.

<font color="white">Didn't cap because at least one of my Jacks might not be live with this betting, and with 1 opponent folding, I was only getting 3 to 1 on my cap with probably about 12 outs? I thought it was just short of a cap strictly value-wise. </font>

Turn: (12 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Mr. No Read bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Possible Good player raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">LA-P 3-bets</font>, Hero calls, Mr. No Read folds, <font color="#CC3333">Possible Good player caps</font>, LA-P calls $0.50 (All-In), Hero calls.

<font color="white">At least a call is clear from the pot odds... even if it's capped behind me, I'm getting enough. Not sure about whether to cap or just call here. Knocking Mr. No Read is something I don't need to do since at this point spiking a K or Q isn't going to win for me. I was hoping Mr. No Read calls the 3-bet when I do and then I would definitely call the cap properly. Was tihs far off? </font>

River: (24.50 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players, 1 all-in)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Possible Good player bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, Possible Good player calls.

<font color="white">Nutcracker Suite.</font>

Final Pot: 28.50 BB

You needed approximately 2.91:1 to cap this flop. With 3 callers, you're getting that; I'd cap for value. It's close, though, but you've got 12 outs against everything except a set or QJ, and you've got 11 outs against QJ. I don't hate calling but I'd cap.

Oh yeah I miscalculated. It's close either way you look at it. Right now I'm on a slightly small bankroll so I'm foregoing close caps like this if it will reduce my swings.

Thanks for the correction.
