This post belongs on the microlimits forum. I'm not trying to be the forum police or anything, just saying that the posters there would have a better idea of what other players in .50/1 games would do, and therefore what your best play would be.

In general terms, I would say that you went wrong calling the cap PF, and went wronger calling the flop bet after it missed you 3-suited to a suit you didn't have.

I raise or fold on the flop. Either fold your hand or give yourself the best chance you can to win it!!! Ed Miller style baby... You have to knock out as many players as you can. You are not in a good situation, that is for sure... and you need to try to get as many people with weak flush draws as possible to fold, and one way to do that is to represent strength. A call doesn't accomplish anything for you but make your hand even more vulnerable on the turn.

Although if it was me I would be folding it pre-flop and after the flop!!! I agree with HARV!

[Durs522]

Yeah I agree my call on the flop was pretty weak. With that many players I should have realized someone either had the flush, or had a strong draw. Once I hit my Q I think it blinded me to the fact that I was probably beat. Thanks for the advice, I'll repost in the micro-limits as well.
