Default Re: QJs in SB

you choose the wrong format to convert too, no?

"Sorry about the converter.....I can never find a good one for Full Tilt [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

CO - posted

Button - lag who I'd seen playing aggressively and having everyone fold to him at least 3 times in 30 min. The hands that I actually showdown were questionable ex. J9s on a 9QKxx on board

BB - only one left behind me. A somewhat loose-passive player that surprised me with a call.

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is SB with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
2 folds, CO (poster) checks, Button calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB calls, CO calls, Button calls.

As soon as I raised I didn't feel too good about it, even with the benefit of reads, because I had not taken my position into consideration.

Flop: A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (6SB, 4 players)
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, CO folds, Button calls.

Middle pair with bdfd + bdsd + the inconvenience of being the pfr oop. I decide to bet and fold to a raise.

Turn: T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (4.5BB, 3 players)
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, Button calls.

No one raised. Are they still drawing, or do I get raised here? But I'm much stronger now. FD, OESD, middle pair. I'm giving myself 9 outs for the FD. If a K or 8 comes, I'm tied with someone with a Q, so 4 outs for the SD. Q outs no good, since that gives any K a straight. Two Js left which I think are still good here against 2 opponents. So worst case scenario, I've got slightly less than 15 outs. I figure I'm 50% to win this hand now, so I decide to lead. If raised I'm reraising.

River: T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (7.5BB, 3 players)
Hero checks, BB checks, Button checks.

Miss everything, and the T scares me. I'd still fold to a raise, so I decide to check-call.

Results:
Final pot: 7.5BB

Summary: Flop was played bad, Turn was played fine I guess. I would have probably still gone for the overcall even if I didn't have the lead. River was played bad. That's my analysis, and I'd really appreciate it if anyone would be willing to point out the flaws presented here, or even point me in the right direction.

Anything you guys would want to add would be much appreciated.
