flop good, turn eliminates any straight or flush beats. do you check? raise? all-in?

I'd bet about $4 here to try to entice a call, because if he has anything less than a king, then you're not getting anything else from him, and a king will probably call $4.

i played it safe, worried a little about kk, however unlikely that may be. only because he re-raised pre-flop. now queen hit, so he may also have QQ (my mind always thinks negative). i have to at least call right? i made my boat so maybe i should re-raise representing a possible AJ.

hate the flop play. as played i dont mind the check behind (makes it look like you semibluffed the flop possibly with QJ & whiffed).

raise to $8.50 and expect to get a call

; ; biggest pot i've lost so far, deposited two days ago(played play money before) in a bit of a slump after this hand. hopefully bonuses will even me out again.

any tips for transitioning from play money to real?

Hey will you look at that. I lost yeterday with a set of 10's on the flop to a set of Kings on the flop. Over $100 loss for me.

ok 3rd nuts should 100% of the time go broke to the 2nd nuts/nuts in this situation (not counting QQ, he probably doesnt play QQ like this)
