This is my first hand at the table.

Paradise Poker 0.50/1 Hold'em (9 handed) internettexasholdem.com

Preflop: Hero is BB with 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, 4 folds, Button calls, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (5 SB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (5 players)
SB checks, Hero bets, UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, Button folds, SB folds.

Turn: (3.50 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero bets, UTG+1 raises, Hero ???

Should I reraise here or just call?

I think your move here would depend on your read of UTG+1. Without a read I would reraise and call ddwn if he caps.

I love hitting garbage from the big blind. I don't love these situations without reads, however, but that's life.

It's close either way. Since my hand is fairly strong, and I do have a draw to a good flush, I call down to see what he slowplayed the flop with, since the deuce is highly unlikely to have helped him. I'm take many notes, though, so your mileage may vary.

I think I just call down. I'm hoping he slow played AK from UTG+1 and not AA, but with no reads I'm not putting a set past him.

let's see... you have 4 outs for Q's and 2's, you have 9 outs to a flush. So total you have 13 outs. I think it'd be a problem if you 3-bet and he capped, but wouldn't be so bad with that many outs. Hell I say raise it up. 2-pair isn't that bad, plus, maybe this is some [censored] playing AK weird.

I reckon he has Ax and he was waiting for the big bet on the turn to raise you so 3-bet him is my suggestion

You have a lot of outs if you're behind (flush + probably boat outs). You're going to be OOP on the river. Several of the hands that beat us are unlikely (UTG limp with 43? Unraised AA or QQ or AQ? 1 remaining combo of 22?)

Let's 3bet now.
