Party $100 NL. I'm on the button with $220, which covers everyone at the table (but there are several people with > $150).
Pick up J /images/graemlins/spade.gif9 /images/graemlins/spade.gif. Three limpers in front of me, I call and the blinds come along for the ride.
Flop comes A-rag-rag, all spades. BB opens for a pot-sized bet ($12). One middle position caller and it's on me. Here is my dilemma: Do I raise it up here with the non-nut flush? Do I call?
My personal "plan of attack" was to smooth-call here and make a large bet or raise if a non-spade hit the turn. Of course, a 4th spade hits the turn. BB bets $30, MP calls and I muck. MP ends up winning with the nut flush (naked K /images/graemlins/spade.gifin the hole).
Was my check too weak? Was this a clear raise/fold situation? This being Party, I feel that the nut draw would've called a medium to large raise, but that may just be me trying to justify a weak play.
Thoughts?
