    Looks like some sort of a combo-draw hand...AQ, QJ, QT

    His play is retarded and then the SB totally f's everything up for you by continually check-smoothcalling pot bets. Nice.

    One pair is beat - expensive way to find that out though

    Only things I might have done differently, I'm likely to make it $12 on the flop...and you could push the turn if you really feel like you have the best hand. Otherwise on the turn if I'm in doubt I'm just calling his bet and risking the 3rd club in exchange for not getting stacked against a better hand.

    Regardless the river is a "FUCK!" n fold.

    Does anyone else raise the UTGs bet on the turn with the SB cold calling the preflop raise and flop raise?

    So most think I was too aggressive on the turn?

    SB has a set, UTG has a flush. You were behind from the flop on...the fact that they both called your flop raise should have told you to shut it down. I would have check/folded the turn. When your raise gets called by two players, TPTK is rarely da nuts.

    No hindsight for the blind.

    There is no way in hell I'm folding TPTK +gutshot to a 5$ bet into a 36.5$ pot. Smooth call turn and see if the SB wants to raise. Reevaluate river.

    Yeah I think a call on the turn is prudent. That is a very dangerous board (along with 2 opponents) to be throwing lots of money at with one pair.
    Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.
