    My only critique is that I don't like the re-raise PF. Someone re-raising your raise from UTG shows great strength....ask yourself if you would re-raised with less than AJ in his spot, and I think you will see why you shouldn't cap here.

    After that I like the play. I may have fired at river after they both checked to you for 2nd strt street.......maybe.

    Bad 3rd bet PF... just call this and see what the flop brings.

    Why Do a CB from MP (relative)? I think this should be a check/fold spot.

    Same with the turn, good check.

    Ok, now I bet the river.
    Marm is back, maybe. Been off for 3 years. Rusty as Hell.

    Luck is a Residue of Design.

    Oddly enough the 'mistake' of capping pf was most probably the bet that won you the hand!

    Had you called the 3-bet from MP1, the natural thing to do on the flop was to check to the re-raiser/MP1 instead of making a c-bet as you did. I suspect MP1 had AK and figured you for AQ and didn't like the idea of chasing 3 outs (kings).

    I didn't like the check on the turn with a spade flush draw staring you in the face and now a club flush draw too! If you had bet and got called by either/both blinds, then I would figure to check throu the river as I would have to put one of them on a queen or having made a flush.

    You got lucky with your aggression on the pf with a hand you should have considered folding after getting re-raised. Just goes to show that an aggressive player gets 'lucky' more often than a non-aggessive player!
