This Hand Got Ugly Quick - Thoughts

[Pedigree]

MP2 is very loose and pretty passive (60/10/.65) but that's not a really strong read (30 hands).

Had a strong read on the BB that he was loose and aggressive. Was suprised and disappointed when he folded preflop...

MP2 checks, Hero checks.

I would fold:

(1) preflop,
(2) to MP2's flop bet
(3) to MP2's 3-bet
(4) to MP2's turn bet.

you're right, i take back #4.

Fine i take back #3 too

[Pedigree]

I thought raising the flop was worth a shot given the size of the pot and the (small) number of opponents. I probably should've folded at #2 though.

This hand makes no sense to me whatsoever. Did you think Mr. Passive's preflop raise, flop bet and 3-bet screamed "I don't have a hand?"

Hm ... In rings games ... I used to make this raise, but I usually fold in these situations now ... I'm now wondering if I play too weak-tight with these med. pocket pairs. On the flop H/U I might be more tempted to make this play ...

What raising hands are we ahead of?: AK, AJ, AT, KJ, KT? Am i limiting his range too much?

The passive read + 3-way pot makes me fold ... but i'd be interested what others think since I might be too W/T here.

I'm folding every street but the turn.

OP already explained that he thought BB was coming along and would increase his implied odds if he hit his set.

(2) to MP2's flop bet

It's very likely that this flop missed MP2 completely.

MP2's 3-bet

No arguments here. Though calling and folding the turn UI is not a huge mistake.

to MP2's turn bet.

Hero now has 6 outs and getting odds to call.
