Preflop: Hero is in MP with 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 6/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 7/images/graemlins/club.gif, 3/images/graemlins/heart.gif
UTG calls $4, UTG+1 calls $4, MP1 folds, Hero calls $4, MP2 calls $4, <font color="CC3333">Villain raises $26 to $30</font>, Button folds, SB folds, BB folds, UTG calls $26, Hero calls $26, MP2 calls $26.
Flop: 4/images/graemlins/club.gif, Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 2/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="blue">(4 players)</font>
UTG, Hero and MP2 check, <font color="CC3333">Villain bets $127</font>, UTG folds, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises $83 to $210 and is all-in</font>, MP2 folds, Villain calls $83.
Turn: A/images/graemlins/spade.gif
River: 2/images/graemlins/spade.gif
Results in white below: <font color="white">
Hero has [5h 6d 7c 3h] (a straight, Ace to Five)
Villain has [Ad Ah 8s 5d] (a full house, Aces full of Deuces).
Outcome: Villain wins $547. </font>
So, first, I like this preflop hand against the Villain representing a high pair - any thoughts? He does have position on me though, and is an aggressive player. Nice flop for me, don't think it helped him, I like my wrap so I raise all-in; what do you think? Anyone agree with the Villain's play here too? This was a big pot, and I'd love to know how or why you would've played it differently.
If our stacks are deep, say the Villain and I both have $1000, how would your play on the flop differ?
