    Default Paired flop with trips & position

    Here's a 50NL hand I played today, what do you think? Button and BB are playing mostly tight. Me/Button is around 17/9($32), and BB is 22/7($60).

    I'm dealt QJs in diamonds on button:

    all folds, Button raises to $2, SB calls, BB folds.
    FLOP: Q T Q
    BB bets $3, Button calls

    TURN: 7
    BB checks, Button bets $10, BB calls.

    RIVER: 6
    BB checks, Button pushes $13.85, BB calls.
    Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.

    slow motion
    if BB is tight, i would have to put him on the case Q, 9T hearts, KK/AA. the pot size bet on the flop scares away pretty much anything else. villains c/c on the turn and the river may narrow it down to the 2 over pairs. I think the converter might have screwed up the hand
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.

    No converter, just me going off memory.
    If I raise the flop, do you think I lose business from paying customers? i.e. AA, KK, JJ, & any T?
    I thought about raising this, but smooth called to slow play. If an A or K hits and he goes bonkers with what is left of our stacks, can you fold this or do you just call the rest of my shortish stack off?

    Downswinging holla!
    Rebuy to the maximum first off. Everything after that is fine. Smooth calling the flop is fine, there are no flush draws out there and if he has AK and you fill up you double for sure. I don't see how this hand isn't ridiculously standard, especially given stack sizes.
