I don't know about the flop play, but it setup the turn play perfectly. I was also lucky enough to get a call by someone who "smelled" a bluff

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ Hero (6 max, 3 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is BB with 2, 2. SB posts a blind of $0.1.
Button calls $0.25, SB (poster) completes, Hero checks.

Flop: ($0.75) Q, 2, 8 (3 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, Button checks.

Turn: ($0.75) 3 (3 players)
SB bets $0.25, Hero calls $0.25, Button raises to $2, SB folds, Hero calls $44.15 (All-In), Button calls $21.70 (All-In).

River: ($69.10) 5 (2 players, 2 all-in)

Final Pot: $69.10

Results in white below:
Hero has 2c 2h (three of a kind, twos).
Button has 5d Qc (two pair, queens and fives).
Outcome: Hero wins $69.10.
If I had a hammer
I'd drop in the morning
I'd drop in the evening..

Wow I bet he was happy when he saw the river and then pissed when he saw your hand. What a tool.

Anyways nice pot, it looks like it would have been very hard to squeeze much money out of this one but you managed to take a nice one home. Good play.

Nice play, but I probably wouldn't have raised so much on the turn. Maybe keep it down to a nice $10.

Gotta love patterns like that.

Have pairs, play ho-hum, see your set come and act like it's nothing. When you get pushed hem and haw and act it up and let the other guy force you all in.

Then take his money.

My buddy keeps having flashbacks of that after I slowplayed a pair of jacks that made a set on him in one of our home tourneys.

Looks to me like he shouldn't have been in that hand in the first place with garbage card. They just got him in trouble..
Currently Playing 8 Tables of 25NL 10-Max.
Or
2 Tables of 100NL 10-Max

Current Bankroll: $625

Goal: To stop pulling $$$ out of my bankroll and build it up to 1k.

Surf_Thug. Remeber this was three handed.

Three handed I really can't fault the man for seeing the flop with those cards for the price of the BB.
