    limp no good, but I did almost the exact same thing with better position in the last tourney I played, Girevik was watching so I showed it.

    IMO

    UR right limp sucked, Muck it, trash hand

    Flop, like bet, who knows might take it down,

    Turn I dont like, Ck then call, POP it now, looks like he is either chasing a str8 (a tie for u) or he just picked up flush draw, Eithe way u dont get paid off when he missis on river.

    River bet ok IMO, if he has top pair weak kicker he might call, Missed draw wont call anything.

    my 2cents

    It's arguable whether it should be played utg, but a nice low risk way to mix it up as you should have no trouble folding to a raise preflop.

    Flop bet fair enough, though I'd probably have thought I missed the flop (I don't bet on gutshots very often). As a semi-bluff your bet juices the pot if called and might have taken it on the spot (though probably not).

    I'd have raised the turn he may be trying to induce action with the small bet by showing weakness and you may get a call if he thinks you are bluffing. Alternatively he is really weak and won't be calling a bet now or on the river. Either way a decent (pot-sized?) raise and hope he's got perceived outs or has something he thinks is good and that you are bluffing

    Awkward situation though out of position.

    I normally wouldn't bet the flop, but, counting on my fingers, I realized it was a double gutshot to the nuts either way, so....

    And yeah, I shoulda raised the turn some more....

    And as we all know, the double gut-shot is the most powerful draw in hold'em, especially if you add in a runner-runner one card flush draw.

    This SUPER/SYSTEM really works!

    I missed the double gutshot.

    Might have made me bet a touch more on the flop.

    I should see if I can find the hand where I did just about the same play.
