    Default QQ K on flop after re-raise.

    Sorry no converter.

    This was a dodgy hand. The turn call was actually a mis-click. But what should I have done?

    Villain 1 is loose agressive, earlier re-raised with AJo. Villain 2 is loose but not as wild.

    If their image of you is that you're a TAG, I lead into them on the flop for something around 7.50. I don't want to get into check/calling against both of these guys with the overcard on the board. Too easy to lose a really big pot with a hand that won't likely improve. If they call or play back, I'm done with it.

    From the river action, it might have worked out for you unless villain 1 was trying to check-raise river.

    Just very briefly. Your hand has some showdown value, you are out of position against two opponents who combined could very possibly have a king. Even if they don't have a king one of them could easily float the flop and you will be forced to fold to a turn bet. Betting this flop with AQ is better than betting with QQ. If I check the flop and both opponents check behind I'll usually lead the turn on a harmless card, this way you will often get calls by TT JJ and then be able to check down the river against such hands.

    so you would check the flop if its heads up and you reraised (which it will be most likely)?

    he didn't rereraise and the flop was not heads up. If you want to analyse a hand where its heads up then post such a hand.

    The weird thing was I was ahead until the river. Both were on QJo, one caught the runner-runner flush.
    Made me feel better about the mis-click

    i said to reraise pf and to lead the flop, i didnt just say lead the flop. don't just analyze half of my post without taking it all into account. and i agree with you that leading the flop is bad without reraising pf.
