$55: KQo early, OOP and mulitway
Meh. I hate this hand and I felt lost, which is rare for me, so I'm posting it. It's not necessarily that interesting, just a hand I donked up and can learn from.
It's Thanksgiving when I played this, so lots of unknowns drunk off of turkey and whatnot. No reads. Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (10 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx UTG (t885) UTG+1 (t1000) UTG+2 (t885) MP1 (t1000) MP2 (t1490) MP3 (t1000) CO (t925) Button (t945) Hero (t985) BB (t885) Preflop: Hero is SB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls t15, UTG+2 calls t15, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP2 calls t15, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls t15, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero completes, BB checks. Flop: (t90) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font> Hero checks, BB checks, UTG+1 checks, UTG+2 checks, MP2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets t100</font>, Hero calls t100, BB folds, UTG+1 folds, UTG+2 calls t100, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises to t200</font>, CO calls t100, Hero calls t100, UTG+2 calls t100. Turn: (t890) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> Hero checks, UTG+2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets t175</font>, CO calls t175, Hero folds Here are my thoughts (but no results) in white: <font color="white"> 1) I usually lead the flop, but I just can't see myself not getting raised if I lead for pot, so I check. Weak-sauce. 2) I almost timed out after the flop min-check raise because it is such a f'n donk move that I hated it and wanted to push so badly, and the player was an unknown, i.e. probably not good. So I... called???? Hmm. 3) I planned on pushing the turn, but the Ace scrred me. So I check/folded.</font> |

I would probably lead out here, and fold to a raise. I would proceed very cautiously if called...
I think check/calling a bet from LP seems alright, but probably not your best option. However, I'm turbo-mucking to the minraise on the flop. |

I suspect there's something wrong with this line but what it is escapes me at the moment because I think i play this the same most of the time.
I hate f..king KQ. |

But I do like your flop line. I think I fold to the minraise, not because I necessarily think he has us beat, but between the 3 of them, and the heat I need to take on the turn with a mediocre hand, I wait for a better spot. It's one of those, I'm maybe folding the best hand, but it makes sense given the situation. Looking back, I think this hand may be too amorphous to get a "good" line.
