Total pot: (9.80 BB)

3rd: I wouldn't normally play buried QQ against multiple opponents, but with an A up maybe I can scare someone into making a bad fold later if I pick up a scary enough board.

4th: Ugh. I hate to check this board, am I giving up too much information with this? I really don't want to be raised as I am expecting to have to fold this on 5th quite often.

5th/6th: standard I guess

7th: If I have EVER bet/folded the river in stud/8 before, I have no memory of it. Maybe he rivered a 6 low, and has a 3 and remembers the other 2 3s are out, but that's a bit of a stretch. Surely I am dead 100% of the time here?
