Hi everyone! This is my first post here, I'm looking forward to improving my game with all of you. Here's a hand I think I blew last night:

bodog Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (9 handed)
Hero (UTG+3) ($6.52)<br>
Button ($7.04)<br>
<br>
<b>Preflop</b>: Hero is UTG+3 with Q<img src="http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerforum/images/smilies/heart.gif">, Q<img src="http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerforum/images/smilies/diamond.gif"><br>
<font color=#666666><i>1 fold</i></font>, <font color=#CC3333>Hero bets $0.40</font>,Button calls $0.40 <font color=#666666><i>5 folds</i></font><br>
<br>
<b>Flop</b>: 3<img src="http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerforum/images/smilies/diamond.gif">, 2<img src="http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerforum/images/smilies/diamond.gif">, 6<img src="http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerforum/images/smilies/diamond.gif"> <font color=#009B00>(3 players)</font><br>
Hero bets $0.40, <font color=#CC3333>Button calls $0.40</font>, <font color=#666666>
<br>
<b>Turn</b>: ($10.75) 4 <img src="http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerforum/images/smilies/club.gif"> <font color=#009B00>(2 players)</font><br>
<font color=#CC3333>Hero checks</font>, <font color=#CC3333> Button bets $0.94 </font>, Hero calls $0.94<br>
<br>
<b>River</b>: ($18.75) A<img src="http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerforum/images/smilies/club.gif"> <font color=#009B00>(2 players)</font><br>
<font color=#CC3333>Hero checks</font>, <font color=#CC3333>Button bets $1.88</font>, Hero calls $1.88<br>
<br>
Buttons shows A<img src="http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerforum/images/smilies/diamond.gif">, K<img src="http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerforum/images/smilies/club.gif"><br>
<b>Total pot:</b> $7.53 <b>| Rake:</b> $0.37<br>

Preflop, I raise my standard 4BB. On the flop, I also bet my standard 1/2 pot c-bet. When the button calls, I don't gain much info. It's likely he just thinks I'm bluffing given my initial raise and he could be calling with almost anything. If he had flopped a straight, he probably would have raised me. But with the 4 on the turn, he might have one now. From there, I decided to just check for pot control and call whatever he would throw at me as long as the bets were not too large. I feel that I should have played this more aggressively on the flop and maybe bet something larger than the pot. What do you guys think?

Woops, formatting didn't come out right. How do I get HTML to work properly?

What do we know about villain? Do you play with a hud, stats? is he loose, tight etc... Playing QQ on this board could be very different with a tighter player than a looser fish for example.

Havent managed to read it all it hurt my eyes but c-bet a little more than 1/2 pot as standard. Against fish who arent gonna be paying attention bet closer to pot when you have a solid hand like this one. Cant see the suits or anything so ill have to look again but i dont think the turn is that scary and im probably gonna be advocating betting but it depends on the opponent and i suppose the suits on the flop etc but yeh, try and convert it again please and give us some info on opponent :)

Are there any special tags I need around the text? The preview doesn't look any different.

Unfortunately, I have no information about the villain. I'm multitabling on Bodog, which now makes everyone anonymous. I haven't used a HUD yet, but I'm assuming that they don't have any available for Bodog now because of this, correct? The flops comes up suited all diamonds. I have a queen of diamonds and he has the ace of diamonds. Turn and river are not diamonds.

Gotta be outputted for this forum which (I think) is either phpBB or VB. You can't post raw HTML in the posts.

Yeah. I use www.handhistory.com then just select the phbb option

That site goes to a landing page for me. Someone needs to make a plug-in for Chrome where I can paste HH during me session, then come back at the end of a session to view them and it automatically formats them for me in the process ready for posting :D

Bet the turn for sure. Don't pot control in a 10NL game. A lot of overpairs to the board are calling, possible Ax hands that don't believe you and hands with one diamond in who are chasing a flush. Bet about 80% of pot
