I was in the CO with AJo. UTG Limps, 4 folds, call, raise, I call, button folds, SB folds BB calls UTG calls, Limper calls.

I'm not a fan of the cold call. If the raiser is tight in his raising standards I'd fold. Otherwise, take command and three-bet.

Flop comes Q,Q,8 rainbow

UTG bets, Limper calls, original rasier raises, I have a pretty good read on him and that he is not playing a Q that way so I go 3Bets.

I don't like this. I'd just fold. You're probably beat, could well be drawing dead and at best you're drawing to 6 outs. Its not just the queen you should be concerned about, but also the pocket pairs that are ahead of you. Plus other players quietly checking along always make me wary.

So my question is if those hands are laying down what is 99 still doing sticking around? Is it a bad play on my part, and a good call on UTG's part? Or did he just make a bad call to my good play?

He's a better player than they are? He has you tagged as a player who goes too far with his hands?
