Obviously a "how do I extract maximum money" question.

Paradise Poker 0.05/0.10 Hold'em (9 handed)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with 9/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, K/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
<font color="666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls, Hero calls, MP2 calls, <font color="666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls, <font color="666666">1 fold</font>, $neaky_Dude calls, BB checks.

Flop: (5.60 SB) T/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 3/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="blue">(6 players)</font>
$neaky_Dude checks, BB checks, <font color="CC3333">UTG+1 bets</font>, Hero calls, MP2 calls, ($0.05)$neaky_Dude folds, BB calls.

Aaah, flopping the nuts. I love everything except that the bettor is to my immediate right. I go for overcalls here figuring it's much more profitable than making everyone face 2 cold.

Turn: (4.80 BB) 9/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="blue">(5 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="CC3333">UTG+1 bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP2 folds, CO calls, BB calls, UTG+1 calls.

Ok, people are still around. I can't bring myself to go for overcalls again in case UTG+1 is willing to 3-bet me. I raise the non-heart hoping to represent something worse than a flush and pray that anyone with a single diamond will call me.

River: (12.80 BB) 8/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="CC3333">UTG+1 bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, CO folds, BB folds, UTG+1 calls.

Go for overcalls here again? Since no one made a one-card flush, everyone except UTG+1 is likely going to fold 2 cold. Then again, maybe they'll fold the single bet too.

Final Pot: 16.80 BB

Everything looks good except the pre-flop limp.

what's wrong with the preflop limp at .50/1.00?

I haven't played that in a long time, and if it's that loose I guess it might be OK.
