ChezJ is an unknown quantity at this point
 UTG+1 is LAGgy, no reads on MP1.

--------

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with K, Q.
1 fold, UTG+1 calls, 1 fold, MP1 calls, 1 fold, Hero raises, CO calls, 3 folds, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls.

Flop: (9.50 SB) Q, 9, K (4 players)
UTG+1 bets, MP1 raises, Hero 3-bets, CO calls, UTG+1 caps, MP1 calls, Hero calls, CO calls.

Turn: (12.75 BB) 7 (4 players)
UTG+1 bets, MP1 raises, Hero calls, CO folds, UTG+1 3-bets, MP1 calls, Hero calls.

River: (21.75 BB) Q (3 players)
UTG+1 checks, MP1 checks, Hero bets, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls.

Final Pot: 23.75 BB

Results in white below:
MP1 has Ks 9s (two pair, kings and queens).
Hero has Kd Qc (full house, queens full of kings).
Outcome: Hero wins 23.75 BB.

---------

The flop cap was disturbing. I thought I might be up against a set, or even a straight. The turn was no help to anyone but they kept firing so I went into scared mode and almost folded to the two bets. I had been so focused on raising the flop that I lost count of the pot size. So I no longer knew whether I had correct odds to draw to my boat. I knew there were only 4 outs so it was probably hopeless, but I called anyway. Then once I did that, I had to call the (predictable) raise behind me. Turns out I was ahead all along, unless UTG+1 really had that straight and folded it (unlikely). He was more likely on a flush draw.

I could see JT maybe, but I seriously doubt you are up against a set in this situation. UTG most likely was on a flush draw. What is your read of MP1?

I am not thinking set here either with UTG+1 being LAgg no raises preflop. I am thinking IF someone flopped a straight at worst you have the second best hand with a chance to improve to the nuts. The third best hand always pays the 2 best hands so I think you played it fine. I definitely check/call here on the turn and river.

3-bet/cap the turn. Otherwise, looks fine to me.
