Couple hand poorly played?
I believe I played these hand pretty poorly. I'll give comments on what I was think through out the hands. I'd like to get some feed back on where my thoughts were incorrect.
1st Hand: Opponent comes to the table short stacked. I figure he is going to try to make a few steals, with mediocre hands like I see alot of short stakes do. They move to a higher limit table try to make a few plays, and a few bucks then leave, to go back to their 10$ tables.

*** FLOP *** : [ Kh Qh Qc ] I flop a set, make a pot size bet. Figure that only a Q or a flush draw will call.
Ugly Ed : Bet ($6)
ryanbriggs17: Fold
jay_r17 : Raise ($12) Hmm. He makes a small raise. My 1st thought is he is trying to steal the pot, or he also has a Q ( I feel it is unlikely since there is only 1 Q left). Thinking maybe I dont have a Q. He could have KQ, but from the few hands I have seen him raise with he probably would have raised with PF KQ. Plus I think he would have made a bigger raise with KQ, or just called. He may also be betting a flush draw. Thats what I think is most likely the case.
Ugly Ed : Call ($6)
*** TURN *** : [ Kh Qh Qc ] [ Kd ] Ok another K. Now if he was on a flush draw it is dead. (Which is what I think is the case) If he has a Q we are tied. Like I said I really dont think KQ. If he had just Kx I cant see him calling much less raising my flop bet. So I put him all in. Its not that much money anyway. If he was on the flush draw he either folds or I destack him. Worst case we split the pot.

CCCP ! didn't bet (folded)
jay_r17 bet $52.30, collected $104.60, net +$52.30 (showed hand) [ Kc 6c ] (a full house, kings full of queens) Wow as you can see he did have a K. Just a K rag. With that board I just couldnt see him having a K. Obviously, he was stupid to even be in after the flop, he got lucky and caught one of the only two Ks left and won.
Ugly Ed bet $64, collected $11.70, net -$52.30 (showed hand) [ 9d Qd ] (a full house, queens full of kings)
Where do you see me going wrong with this hand?

ryanbriggs17: Call ($2)
CCCP ! : Call ($2)
Ugly Ed : Call ($1) I could have raised this PF. I usually dont with A9 off or lower though. I usually will limp with it hoping to make 2 pair or a set. Then fold if I dont to a raise. Most of the time I wont call a raise PF with A9 off or lower.
mharrell: Check
*** FLOP *** : [ 9h 7s 9c ]
Ugly Ed : Check I check this. Going to slow play it a little.(not really a good idea, but I felt pretty safe with this board.)
mharrell: Check
ryanbriggs17: Check
CCCP ! : Bet ($2)
Ugly Ed : Call ($2)
mharrell: Fold
ryanbriggs17: Raise ($5) I am thinking he may have a 9 with a smaller kicker. (But there is only 1 9 left kinda small chance he has it.) Or maybe couple high cards and figures he is in the lead. With CCCP only betting 2$ and me just calling. (This is what I think)
CCCP ! : Fold
Ugly Ed : Call ($3)
*** TURN *** : [ 9h 7s 9c ] [ Tc ]
Ugly Ed : Bet ($10) I dont really like the T. Now there is a possible str8, also a flush draw. I make about a 3/4 pot size bet. Kinda see where I am at.
ryanbriggs17: Raise ($20) Ok he raises me just 10$. Kinda weak bet. I am thinking possible a str8 slow played. But with a flush draw possible wouldnt a str8 make a bigger raise? Maybe he paired the Ts (had AT or something) and figures that since I just called his flop bet maybe his AT is beating my Tx. Plus I could still make the FH and win. So I call.
Ugly Ed : Call ($10)
*** RIVER *** : [ 9h 7s 9c Tc ] [ 5d ]
Ugly Ed : Bet ($20) Ok at this point I am thinking he had either a 9 with smaller kicker, and beleives he is the only 1 with a set.( like I said I dont think so cause he would have to have the last 9 left) I figure most likely he has AT.
ryanbriggs17: Raise ($60) He makes a pretty good raise. I feel like I have to call. I am sure I am in the lead, and he thinks his TPTK is good.
Ugly Ed : Call ($40)
