I'm not a big fan of this play.

this is how i would have thought it out in my head if i were playing...


first off, i dont like the bet on the flop. you have a LOW flush draw. I'd check, and MAYBE call to see the turn.

and second, MP3 RAISES your flop bet. Right there, i'd put him on Ad-xd. so TP + TFD. and 2 callers after that. no way would I make that call.

the turn obviously helped your cause a little, but you had to think you were still beat. so i like your check there, but MP3 bets again, and CO calls again. calling here is a tough call for me. 2 other players can very possibly have a better flush draw. and theres 2 overcards out there. I wouldnt have been in the hand anymore anyway though.

the river card was very nice for you. congrats. but i'm pulling the donk card on you.

Let me explain why I raised the flop. My thought here was, if there is someone else sitting out there with 2 diamond cards they wont call 2 raises. I knew that someone was going to have an A or K and would reraise. This would eliminate non-nut flush draws.

I was clearly wrong, because the SB folded on the turn that was not a diamond so he was still on a draw. I check, MP3 bets (hes got an A), CO calls (probably a smaller pair -K I'd guess). Now there is 9BB in the pot and I've got 14 outs (I discounted to 9 for half the diamonds being good 46/9 approx 5 so I'm 4 to 1 to either hit 2 pair, trips or the flush) With the pot offering 9 to 1 I have to call.

I'd like some other thoughts on this. The hair was up on the back of my neck in this hand and I dont object against what scottie is saying so I would like some other opinions too.

First hand, I raise on the river. Without a PF raise, I'm not too worried about AK. Just a mid range ace.

Second hand, I fold this PF, but I Like the rest....

You can't narrow down his range that far. The most you can assume is TPGK... And while that is scary enough, it is worth drawing here.

I didnt raise the river because I was exactly scared of a midrange A and that he may have it with 3 5 or 7 (of course the 5 and 7 are unlikely with 2 of each out). You are right though, thats probably a value bet miss.

I have no idea why I called the second hand. My thought was since 4 were seeing the flop I had some implied odds of 7 to 1. I think I got confused though with NL where 7 to 1 is a mandatory call and in limit it is not. Could you clarify this for me Marm (or other)? Am I a donk who thought, ITS SOOOOOTED? LOL!

Hand 1 I lead river
Hand 2 I checkraise and fire turn if he'll fold a crappy ace. If he will call down, just check call probably.
