Should I have played this better at the turn and river?

[tg]Position:hands/vp$ip/pfr/af/wts/ats/foldbb/w$sd;MP1:///////;[/tg]
0.05/0.10 Fixed-Limit Hold'em (10 handed)
Hand recorder used for this poker hand: Texas Grabem 1.9 by www.pokerstrategy.com.

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with T♣, J♣
2 folds, UTG+2 calls, Hero calls, 3 folds, BU raises, SB calls, BB folds, UTG+2 3-bets, Hero calls, BU caps, SB calls, UTG+2 calls, Hero calls.

Flop: (17.00 SB) 8♥, 2♦, Q♦ (4 players)
SB checks, UTG+2 bets, Hero calls, BU raises, SB calls, UTG+2 calls, Hero calls.

Turn: (12.50 BB) 9♠ (4 players)
SB checks, UTG+2 checks, Hero bets, BU raises, SB calls, UTG+2 calls, Hero calls.

River: (20.50 BB) 3♦ (4 players)
SB checks, UTG+2 checks, Hero checks, BU bets, SB folds, UTG+2 calls, Hero calls.

I didn't raise because BU was betting aggressively from the start - I thought he might have a flush.
Final Pot: 23.50 BB

Results follow (highlight to see):
BU shows [ As, 2c ] a pair of Twos
Hero shows [ Tc, Jc ] a straight Eight to Queen
UTG+2 shows [ Ad, Qh ] a pair of Queens
Hero wins $2.12 USD with a straight, Eight to Queen.

3-bet the turn definitely! You just sucked in 2 extra people in a monsterpot where you have the nuts. If you 3-bet they will never fold which will give you more bets when you had the nuts.

#2. I bet/call the river because it's very unlikely that BU has a flush because he was active preflop as well which speaks more for a overpair or set.


Thanks a lot for your feedback on my posts


BU raising pre-flop and then again on the flop could mean he's holding QQs.

His aggressive betting pre-flop could mean pocket AA, KK but QQ would be confirmed that he hit the flop. Hero definitely has the outs but didnt he do the right think by calling?


I don't understand your question. :/

I think he meant it like QQs = Queens = two queens

get it?
