$1/$2 hand from last night

[L0QTiS]

Pretty good 1/2 game from late last night on Party. 45-50 table VP$IP, 2-3 fish driving some fairly sizable pots. BB is one of 'em - the rest involved had ok stats, but on the loose side.

Comments on all streets apprieciated.

I would have raised the river.

I don't understand the river call.
Aren't you a lock for half the pot?

Suerte,

On the Turn only. I'm dead to A9 on the river

More background. UTG's aggression on the flop and cold calling on the turn told me he had an Ace (at least that was my read at the time).

Anyway, I froze on the river given that I no longer had the nut FH. Given I was playing for half the pot at that point I just called. Again, UTG's stats were good, albeit slightly loose.

Geezzz!! I've been playing the game for 4 days straight,
and I still can't even read the hands right!

Well, in that case, I CERTAINLY would have raised the river! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

UTG wins $28 from the main pot with a full house, Aces full of nines.
BB and SB split Low ($14 each) from the main pot with 7,6,3,2,A.

So UTG was freerolling on me, but that really wasn't why I posted this hand. The real question for me is should I always cap the turn on a hand like this that is possibly vulnerable to a better redraw when I'm sure my opponent has an ace (I didn't even think I was tied on the turn). And next, should I continue to raise on the river.

I think it would have been capped back to me had I raised, if so I guess I have to call and take the loss on the remote chance all three were overplaying the low or a worse FH.

Anyone else think about folding the flop?

You have trips with no kicker and the third nut low draw. With all the action on the flop I think that I am behind for the high and I don't know where I stand for the low but I don't like the fact that there are 4 players in this pot.

Furthermore you said that BB was generating large pots so I would worry about a cap here.

I also raise the river.
