I may have actually played a hand well

I liked this and it so deviates from my usual agression I thought i'd post it.

I think you have to raise this flop. You can cut every else's odds enough to fold two overcards here on this flop.

You also have an over pair with a monster draw. You gotta raise this flop somewhere, my choice would be your first chance.

You feel that bad about an OESD? I mean it's one card and all- but it's the right one card. I'm seeing this river.

I raise this flop too with a monster draw and an overpair. If you show this aggression on the flop and still face a bet and raise, then I'd say it's a decent fold. One could argue for trying to hit the straight, the problem is you could be dominated by QJ with that turn raise. I could call the river for one bet, but probably fold to two.

Not raising the flop is awful.

[Alobar]

egad man, raise the flop. Not raising serves zero purpose. Why let some tool with a naked queen see the turn? OR let the retard with a 7 draw to the ignorant end?

I plan to call and pop the turn, really that bad?

That is a better plan IMO if you hold AA and wish to wait to make sure it's a "safe" card while charging draws 2BB's and odds cut in half.

I would always raise on that flop. Given that you didn't, I would have call-reraised after everyone called the raise and it came back one more bet to me.

BTW I think I have to see the river too in this hand, given it's a big pot and you hold two of the jacks. I think folding if you only hold one of the jacks is ok since it's more likely you will chop when you hit a straight, but I can't do it if I hold two of them.

Oh yeah and to add:

Getting 3-bet on the turn really sucks since you have to see a river... Raising on the flop gives you two more chances to catch up if you're behind; raising on the turn if behind only leaves you one more chance while paying double the money.

Your turn raise might be destroying your odds.
