  1. Play is 9 handed.Stack Sizes:Hero has $194BB has $275Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is Hijack with K :) K :club:3 folds, MP calls, Hero raises to $8, 3 folds, BB calls, MP calls.Flop: 2 :D 4 :D 3 :D ($25, 3 players)BB checks, MP checks, Hero bets $20, BB calls, MP folds.Turn: 3 :) ($65, 2 players)BB checks, Hero bets $40, BB calls.River: T :D ($145, 2 players)BB bets $100, Hero ????Reads:The whole table has been playing loose passive since I sat about 2 hours ago. I have been exploiting this by picking up lots of pots with dead money in them. Read on BB is that he is a good player from what I've seen, pretty TAG, however I think he might be picking up some pots of his own without a hand every once in a while. So far I haven't had a chance to see if he is making moves or not since he isn't called often. What would you do here?

  2. Checking with those hands would be a huge mistake, especially with 2 behind him, 3 in the hand. Since most of his made and check raisable hands eat Ks the chances of a bettable hand behind him are greatly reduced, and at this level players arent continuation betting with 3 opponents. A check of a made hand here is begging to give away a free card to 3 dangerous hands. The best you can hope for is an awful "blocker bet" like was made, and that is rarely going to happen. If you put yourself in his seat and would check any made hand that doesnt also include the Ah I think youre prone to wasting a lot of solid hands giving away free cards.
    I think you are assuming way too much about our unknown here.If we had some kind of read on how he likes to play we might be able to get inside his head and figure out what he's thinking, but it's early and we have no read. Just because he's in a $109 buy-in event doesn't mean he is going to play one way or another, maybe he just has a larger amount of money to fool around with in poker. He could be the worst player we've ever seen, who knows.
  3. What's your read on villain's play? Is he observant enough to know how tight you've been playing? If he is that observant, I don't think he'd re-raise here out of the BB without AA/KK/QQ/JJ maybe AK but it depends on your reads. I'd just call his re-raise PF because while it sucks to possibly let some of the others behind you into the pot, it sucks worse when you isolate yourself against a better hand than yours.Once this same flop comes down, BB will have the lead and probably bet something, you have to be very observant with how he acts on the flop to try and figure out if your overpair of queens is good here to raise or not.

  4. You're not necessarily wrong just because of these results Mercury. A decision can still be the correct one if it's right a lot more than it is wrong.If he turns over something that has us in bad shape here we're wrong, and I think his range could definitely include KQ/AK/a set.In my opinion, we aren't right about the NFD nearly enough to be making this call.I fold.

  5. I'm not sure I really agree with Peyton being the MVP either, but it got me to thinking. Who should it be? I couldn't really come up with anyone else that should have it either. Therefore I think you look back to who is calling the plays in the huddle and organizing the team who won on the field, the QB.Rhodes did have a good game at 21 carries for 113 yds and a TD though.Addai also looked good if you tack on his 10 catches.

  6. This is an easy call for several reasons.1) We could be ahead.2) We have an OESD3) Our kicker pairing might be good4) Another 10 might be good5) He could easily have no club, so our club draw might also be live.6) Read is that he's too passive, could make it easy to build your stack back up if you lose by chipping away.
