QTo on the Button

I'm a little off balance at this point in this session. BB is sLA-A, MP3 is LA-P.

Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG folds, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls, MP2 folds, MP3 calls, CO folds, Hero calls, SB folds, BB checks.

Flop: (4.50 SB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (4 players)
BB checks, MP1 checks, MP3 bets, Hero calls, BB calls, MP1 folds.

What say ye to this?

Turn: (3.75 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 players)
BB bets, MP3 calls, Hero folds.

And this? Hmmmm?

There is a reason why everybody wants to play against passive players... don't become one yourself.

Flop is raise or fold IMO. I'm raising this flop for sure.

I´d raise this flop.

If no heart falls on the turn I´d bet if checked to and call down if I hadn´t been 3-bet on the flop.

I agree. In a session full of errors of over-aggression, this mistake stood out. Must have been on reverse-tilt. Despite being on the passive side post flop, MP3 could still be betting a lot of hands and I'm likely best here. If so, there's a good chance my hand will hold up, especially if I can protect it with a raise. Seems simple enough. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Having screwed up the flop, on the turn it looks much less likely I have the best hand and I don't have odds to call, so I folded.

Here is the result in white:

BB wins with Qc2c, MP3 had 8h6h
