    Default $22, AQ in BB flops two pair

    UTG was a loose limper, raiser had bad overall numbers. I was hoping to c/r the flop (mistake?). Lead river?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed)

    UTG+1 (t2640)
    MP1 (t730)
    MP2 (t870)
    MP3 (t2030)
    CO (t1305)
    Button (t2435)
    SB (t130)
    Hero (t1960)
    UTG (t1400)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with A, Q.
    UTG calls t30, UTG+1 raises to t90, 6 folds, Hero calls t60, UTG calls t60.

    Flop: (t285) A, Q, 3 (3 players)
    Hero checks, UTG checks, UTG+1 checks.

    Turn: (t285) 8 (3 players)
    Hero bets t200, UTG calls t200, UTG+1 calls t200.

    River: (t885) 8 (3 players)
    Hero ...

    I like betting that flop OOP and hopefully pushing over if raised.

    As played, I like check/calling most river bets. Not sure how good that is ...

    I'd only ever call the preflop raise if I was sure that UTG+1's preflop raise number was abnormally high. I'm far from overjoyed about playing this OOP against two opps.

    As played, I agree with Courtie, I would definitely lead the flop and shove over if raised. I also agree with c/c on the river - the pot is plenty big enough already and any reasonable bet will pretty much commit you to the hand if UTG shoves AI.

    Definitly lead the flop, it is too well coordinated to allow a free card vs two opponents

    I don't think checkin the flop is that bad.. It's just unlucky he didn't bet.. On the river I check call.. betting is not so good..
