Not too sure about Pre-flop play. I didn't like UTG's limp/re-raise, but once I saw all the callers I decided to stick in there. Comments please.

Oops, forgot reads:

UTG = 80/22/0.58 (LAP) after 55 hands
MP2 = 42/0/0.89 (LPP) after 64 hands

you're toast on the turn, and probably toast on the river especially after he 3bets I know your fucked... any <1 AF still playing at you on the river has a hand my guess is he has KK or AK he play loose argo preflop but slows way down post flop so if he is 3 betting you the turn I seriously don't think you're ahead his bet out on the flop isn't a continuation bet like it possibly could be from a Tagg... you miss read your opponent IMO... if you won the hand I would be extremely suppressed...

By out kicked, do you mean villain had a higher flush?

That river didn't help your hand nearly as much as it looks like it did.
<Staxalax> Honestly, #flopturnriver is the one thing that has improved my game the most.

No, not at all. I felt sucked in on the Turn because A) I Caught my Ace and B) I had the flush re-draw. Then on the River when I tripped up I went for one raise to see where I was at, and found out I really was toast. I was surprised when I looked up the players stats, because I recall UTG being more aggressive than his PT stats showed. I didn't have a lot of hands on him, so I dunno. *shrug*

Results in white below:

UTG shows [ Ks, Kd ] a full house, Kings full of aces.
Hero doesn't show [ Jh, As ] three of a kind, aces.
MP2 doesn't show [ Ad, Qh ] three of a kind, aces.
UTG wins $31.25 from the main pot with a full house, Kings full of aces.


Came in 3rd place. Lesson learned, but I'll live to see another day. Thanks for all the replies.

Methinks you lost to KK, who hit the full house on the river.

If your table is that loose all the time, you wanna dump AJo from EP.

I may think about calling down the turn, but there are so many people to act after you. The pot is big, but you're screwed if your raised on the turn by anyone. Honestly, now that I think about it, I don't think you're good here ever. Even if you improve on the river (which you did), you're going to lose to a full house or flush. That Ace of Hearts was not the card you were hoping for. Fold the turn.

Actually, I should have dumped the flop after whiffing it. But again, I saw $$'s because of the size of the pot. Worst thing that could have happened was after that was to catch up on the turn and then trip the river. But UTG's continued aggression should have told me what I needed to know. He shouted, but I didn't listen. My bad.
