Default Playing overcards scared...

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises</font>, MP2 calls, MP3 calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, MP3 calls.

Flop: (13.50 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">MP1 bets</font>, MP2 folds, MP3 calls, Hero calls.

Turn: (8.25 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">MP1 bets</font>, MP3 calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP1 folds, MP3 calls.

River: (13.25 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
MP3 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP3 folds.

Final Pot: 14.25 BB


More often than not, I think I'd raise the flop here and
try to get a free card on the turn...

But, is call so very bad here?

I think you played this just fine.

I wouldn’t raise this flop because:

1. The flop missed you by a mile.
2. MP3 called one bet already. If it was going to be heads up with MP1 on the turn, I might consider a raise with this flop.

I play it the same. I generally don't like raising for free cards with just overs.

A READ ON MP1 WOULD BE NICE.
