    Default Really uninteresting marginal QTs hand

    Going through my hands of January and came across this hand that I thought could help me to have a little discussion.

    The only read worth mentioning is that the player who limped behind me is a very weak/tight player so I thought on the flop I could buy position and take a free card on the turn. My question however is should I be making this turn call? I'm calling with just barely the odds to complete my hand with the obvious facts I'm behind KQ and may be drawing to a split pot.

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $2 BB (9 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

    Button ($198.05)
    SB ($181)
    BB ($37)
    UTG ($209.85)
    UTG+1 ($413.80)
    MP1 ($366.70)
    Hero ($204.65)
    MP3 ($219.75)
    CO ($197)

    Preflop: Hero is MP2 with Q, T. SB posts a blind of $1.
    UTG calls $2, UTG+1 calls $2, 1 fold, Hero calls $2, MP3 calls $2, 2 folds, SB (poster) completes, BB checks.

    Flop: ($12) 9, J, 5 (6 players)
    SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, UTG+1 checks, Hero bets $6, MP3 folds, SB calls $6, BB folds, UTG folds, UTG+1 calls $6.

    Turn: ($30) T (3 players)
    SB bets $9, UTG+1 calls $9, Hero calls $9.

    Yeah, the problem with KQ is that it's a pretty strong draw to that flop -- in terms of outs it's better than a 4flush (10 as opposed to 9)

    I think I only like this call headup. Too many hot cards to feel good about your outs. If you have any.
