I just sat down, so my only read was the note I had on MP2, which marked him as a TAG.
I felt off-balance during this hand -- it was one of those hands where I had a plan but my opponents kept confusing me. As a result, I ended up with what I think is a pretty crappy line.
I intentionally left out the river since it gives away the ending...
Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (8 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)
Preflop: Hero is CO with 8/images/graemlins/club.gif, 9/images/graemlins/club.gif. MP1 posts a blind of $2. Hero posts a blind of $2.
UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, MP1 (poster) checks, MP2 calls, Hero (poster) checks, Button calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB checks.
Flop: (7.50 SB) J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, T/images/graemlins/club.gif, Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(7 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, MP1 folds, MP2 calls, Hero calls, Button folds.
Bottom of a straight, but I can't see any way that raising will protect it, so I decide to wait until the turn to raise. Should I just raise for value (especially since I also have a BD flush draw)?
Turn: (6.25 BB) T/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises</font>, MP2 folds, Hero calls, BB folds, UTG calls.
The T looked safe until UTG+1 raised. Now I don't like my hand quite as much, but he could just be excited about trips. However, it's enough to scare me off the raise. Mistake?
