when was this game going? i.e. what day was this from?

I have been playing relatively tight this session and havent won any monsters at showdown, mostly standard spots but with a strong image.

EP raises, CO calls, SB calls, i call BB w/ AcQs, (game is playing generally passive and i did not feel raising would really accomplish anything here considering my position and their relatively horrible post flop decision making.)

Flop KJ9

checked around

turn T

sb bets, i call, EP calls, CO calls rest fold

river K

sb bets, i call, ep folds, co calls


the CO in this hand is tommy.. a young foxwoods/AC reg and we were discussing the river and turn play for a little bit and i thought it was a pretty interesting spot.

just wondering if theres enough value to calling in both spots hoping to get overcalls behind on the turn.


the river play is also interesting b/c for my plan on the turn to work, i have to call again here. also, does the CO call 2 bets cold w/ just a Q enough to make a raise profitable? or is just calling gaining me extra value from hands he may fold for two bets?

for those of you whom know tommy he is very capable of laying down a hand and has a pretty decent hand reading ability when he is playing good, and this session he was very un-tilty and playing reasonably well.

my experience w/ tommy is that if anything he is a bit too passive (bad UTG raised, 1 cold caller, i 3bet TT on the button he called QQ in the sb), but other than that a great player. i've never seen him tilt of get out of line, though to be fair my sample size w/ him is pretty small.

onto the hand: i think that if the turn was a T and there was instead of a 9 an 8 (KJ8 T) then i'd like your play more.

but given that there is a straight now on board, you are in a dream situation and imo at the time of the turn call i would expect anybody w/ a queen to call you down.

who was the sb? who was EP?

what would tommy simply call and then check the flop with and then simply call turn and river? i would not be surprised if he showed up here w/ QQ. i don't think he calls that river w/ less than a straight, and if sb is bad, i don't see how he can put you on AQ and fold for 2 bets if you raise a bad playing sb.
