88 UTG
I haven't posted a hand in a while, so I figured I would post this one. My opponent was a typical 6 max party player. He was a little loose and a little aggressive.
The game is 5/10 6 max on Party. I open for a raise UTG with 88 and am 3 bet by the next player to act. The SB calls $13 more and the BB folds. I just call. The flop comes down 9 4 4 rainbow. SB checks, I check, UTG+1 bets. SB folds and I call. Turn is a J making a flush draw possible. I check and call. The river is an offsuit 3 and I bet out. Comments on all streets appreciated.

Re: 88 UTG
I would have bet out on the flop. You don't want to continue 3-handed, do you? What were you planning to do if it was bet and called after your check? Neither of the 3 choices looks that good.
I would have bet the turn as well. River looks fine.

Re: 88 UTG
I don't like the bet out on the river. I don't want to be raised as I have no idea where I stand, and I prefer to show this one down. If he's a LAG, I think he'll fire 1 more shot at you if he's behind. By betting out, he may fold that hand.
I like Zele's advice on the flop.

[/ QUOTE ] If it went bet and call I probably would have called and bet out on a blank turn. I had no read on the SB and wanted to see what his action was on the flop before I put anymore bets in. On the turn I figured my opponent would continue betting because I hadn't given him any resistance. I still thought there was a chance I had the best hand, but I wasn't sure. I bet out on the river because I didn't want AK/AQ to get a free showdown. I also knew my opponent wouldn't raise the river with a worse hand then mine. Maybe it wasn't the best bet, but I knew if I was raised my hand was no good. My bet was for value against AK/AQ.
