Default Capped with KTs

PS 3/6 short

BB is decent, moderately aggressive but maybe a little on the loose side. MP is unknown.

I am UTG with K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

I raise MP three bets and the BB caps.

I call and MP calls (12sb)

Flop comes T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Bet Call Call (15sb)

Turn 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Bet, I raise, MP cold calls and BB calls. (13 BB)

River Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Check Check Check

I got berated for the preflop call. I wasn't happy about it but I thought that 5-1 for a flush with the promise of lots of impied odds was worth it.

Flop: I have been trying not to slowplay flops like this but I couldnt resist. Was this a dumb slowplay?

River: Better to bet-call?

reverse implied odds too. how tight loose were the raisng standrads of your opponents?

they likely have a pair, a peice of the flop or a gutter so yes, it was.

don't you think a Q more often than not raises the flop, or if BB capped AQ or such does he risk a check thru?

You think checking the river here will induce a bet from a worse hand from the player behind you? If so, I might check on the river.

Being in the middle, and one person checking, I think I follow through with a river bet, just because I think a Q would have given you more action on the flop. Also, you will probably get at least one call from a worse hand.

I actually like to get berated it means someone is going on tilt but I I wasnt happy about calling the cap anyway so I thought I would post and see how bad a mistake it was if it was.

The MP was unkown and the BB was a little aggressive but not the type to cap out of the BB without a good hand. I figured one of them for a premium pair.
