Standard overcard play?
UTG is a little LAG; Button is a calling station.
I was folding the river to a raise. Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. UTG calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Button calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, Button calls. Flop: (8 SB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> Hero checks, BB folds, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, Button calls, Hero calls. Turn: (5.50 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, Button calls, Hero calls. River: (8.50 BB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets...</font> |

Against 4 players, I don't hate playing the hand passively like this, though in the heat of battle I probably would have bet the flop.

I was folding the river to a raise. [/ QUOTE ] At first this bothered me because QK or Q9 could conceivably make a play at you, but I changed my mind. I bet the flop though becuase laggy UTG could raise with some trash draw and knock out a pocket pair or 7 on the button. |

Re: Standard overcard play?
Betting this very dangerous flop is a failure to adjust to changing circumstances. Your hand is probably not good, your fold equity is minimal, and the last thing you need is to get yourself raised holding a mediocre draw. The guy with the jack needs to protect his hand. You are the one he needs protection from.
