I think I would have fold preflop, is that very bad?

Yes.

This is rather trite. QTs is a marginal hand in this situation, very playable (for one bet) IF you can be fairly sure that:

1) The pot won't be raised behind you.
2) There will be at least four players seeing the flop.

This hand depends on high implied odds to be profitable. If the game is loose AND passive preflop, it will probably show a profit. However, in a tough game, it is usually not worth playing. (See Malmouth's "Poker Essays", page 120) (Essay Title "Marginal Hands?")

That said, I'd like to add that I think peaches played this hand extremely well. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Check raise the turn.

I like the follow through bet here since it's 3-way. 4-way I'd want to check raise. I just feel like you get lots more action. check raising pretty much tells him to not 3-bet. a bet just looks like a continuation of the flop pissing match. the SB also called 4 bets on the flop. I'd be surprised to see him fold for 2 more bets

Peach, on another topic, I vote for you to change your avatar back to the pink-winged angel.
