    its short handed and he is already in for 25 cents facing a min raise with callers with suited cards... if he thinks he can outplay his opponents on the flop and get away from the hand if nothing hits (9-3 of course is notoriously tough to let go) then there's nothing wrong with calling the extra 25 considering the pot odds, implied odds, and the fact that nobody would be expecting someone to have that...

    Uh...your call on the turn is questionable in my opinion.

    how not to play poker; calling w/ 93 OOp, mmaking a weak bluff on turn, then making a bad call on turn.

    looks like shorthanded play is not your thing.

    Wtf. Im not playing against fucking Doyle here. Im playing against a shortstack fish when Im a little drunk.

    Semi bluffs had been taking down quite a few pots so I figure why not try it on the turn.

    Then I have to call 1 40 into a 4 dollar pot when Im super confident I can win more than a 7 dollar pot.

    Which I did.

    he slow played the nuts on the flop.. of course he's gunna check? mayb he didnt want many out pf and so bet min (crap bet tho)... this is fine - you just got lucky to get ur 4% chance of getting running diamonds

    Yeah 4 % chance. However I wasnt exactly going to call anything on the flop.

    And I know for sure if hed min raised the flop he would have got a call and a fold from the other guy and me respectivley

    that's exactly why he checks, he wants the most people in as possible... i guess the flush draw should have scared him but still

    he had unlimited to odds to hit his flush since the aces didn't bet on the flop, not saying it was a horrible play to check i prolly woulda done the same thing but he did let him get a piece of the turn which is what the aces guy wanted and then the lucky part was on the river
    If there wern't luck involed i guess id win everyone
